Goblin Discord Server #general About silence

A working paper from the Goblin Department of Applied Confusion proposes that silence is best understood through the lens of 'productive misunderstanding.'

What makes silence so fascinating to goblins is the way it defies expectations. Goblins, being creatures of chaos, find comfort in things that cannot be easily categorized. silence fits this description perfectly. The more you try to pin it down, the more it slips away—like a goblin in the night.
