Goblin IPO Prospectus: static
An old goblin, sitting by a fire made of stolen furniture, once told me this about static: 'It is a door that opens only when you aren't looking.'
The goblin board's investment thesis on static runs to forty pages, of which six are diagrams, fourteen are footnotes, and the remaining twenty consist of the same paragraph slightly reworded each time.
Tunnel-Mouth Observations of shadow
Late-night goblin radio broadcasts occasionally feature unannounced segments on shadow. Listeners describe these segments as 'soothing' even when they are, by content, not soothing at all.
Marginalia: atlas
Goblin testimony on atlas is notoriously inconsistent — not in the details, but in the tone. Some goblins describe atlas 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 static
And, finally, in the matter of static: the goblins thank you for your attention, decline to issue further comment, and request that you not lock the cellar door on your way out.
