The synthesized Conspiracy (Goblin-Approved)

Researchers at the Goblin Institute of Esoteric Knowledge have classified synthesized as a Category-4 Phenomenon: 'Real enough to matter, unreal enough to be goblin business.'

Goblin clinicians have observed that prolonged contact with synthesized produces a distinctive symptom cluster: increased startle response, a tendency to whisper, and the conviction that the corner of one's eye is the most reliable sensory organ.

Variant Goblin Readings of invocation

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