The Goblin Calendar of silence

A goblin lullaby—if you can call it that—repeats the word for silence seven times before falling silent. Goblin infants apparently find this soothing.

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.

Cross-Referenced Goblin Material on threshold

There is a goblin who, when asked about threshold, replies only by pointing upward and to the left, regardless of the questioner's orientation. This is considered, in some circles, the most useful goblin reply on record.

Goblins and chant

Goblin testimony on chant is notoriously inconsistent — not in the details, but in the tone. Some goblins describe chant with reverence; some with derision; some with the studied neutrality of a goblin who has been burned before. All testimonies are filed and kept.

The Goblin Verdict on silence

The Goblin Bench of Common Pleas has heard the case of silence and ruled in favor of all parties simultaneously. Goblin jurisprudence permits this. The losing parties — there are none — have agreed not to appeal.
