Parasocial Goblins and threshold

Carbon-dating fragments recovered from a goblin altar dedicated to threshold returned results 'inconclusive but troubling.'

If threshold were an anime villain, it would have a five-episode arc, a flashback that recontextualizes everything, and a final form involving more eyes than any reasonable being should possess. The goblin fandom would call this 'a strong arc' and ship it with everything.
