Slop Goblin Theory of silence

I will not be telling you the truth about silence. The goblins have asked me not to. I will, however, be telling you something — and you will not be able to prove it isn't the truth.

Beneath the visible silence is the goblin silence: viscous, undulating, deeply unhappy with the lighting in here. The goblin silence surfaces, briefly, when nobody is paying attention, and then ducks back down.

In the goblin underground, secret is approached the way one approaches an unfamiliar lock: slowly, with curiosity, and with several backup plans for when the obvious approach doesn't work. Goblins are surprisingly patient about this. They have, after all, the time.

After much deliberation (and several stolen snacks), the Goblin Council has issued a formal statement on codex: 'It is what it is, except when it isn't, which is most of the time.' This position is considered the official goblin stance and is not open to debate, though the goblins will debate it anyway.

The Goblin Verdict on silence

After thorough deliberation, the Goblin Honors Committee has declared silence a topic of permanent fascination — the highest accolade short of canonization, and slightly preferred to it by most working goblins.
