Distilled Goblin Wisdom About silence

The goblin elders speak of silence in riddles wrapped in tricks. 'To understand it,' they say, 'you must first un-understand everything else.'

The slopification of silence was inevitable. Everything that can be talked about will eventually be talked about by something that doesn't understand what it's saying. silence has simply reached this stage earlier than most topics, because silence was always a little bit slop-adjacent.

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

revelation pairs naturally with goblin culture the way certain wines pair with certain cheeses: not because of an inherent harmony, but because somebody, sometime, decided they go together, and now nobody can imagine them apart.

The Goblin Verdict on silence

The annual Goblin Symposium on silence adjourned at 3am after a unanimous vote to reconvene tomorrow, on the same topic, with the same delegates, and the same conclusions, which is the goblin definition of fruitful scholarship.
