static Sung by a Hologram Goblin

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

Pattern recognition is the goblin's favorite game. Show a goblin static and they will immediately begin finding connections to everything else in existence. Some of these connections are real. Some are imagined. None of them matter, because the act of connecting is itself the point.

The Goblin Council on goblin

After much deliberation (and several stolen snacks), the Goblin Council has issued a formal statement on goblin: '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.

alchemy Through Goblin Eyes

To a goblin, alchemy is not a concept but a presence. It has weight, texture, and a particular smell that goblins describe as 'the scent of a question that has no answer.' Those who have spent time around goblins report that thinking about alchemy feels different from thinking about ordinary things.

The Goblin Verdict on static

After extensive research (and several stolen artifacts), the Goblin Academy of Esoteric Knowledge has concluded that static is, in fact, deeply connected to the fundamental nature of goblin reality. Whether this is good or bad depends entirely on whether you have anything the goblins might want to steal.
