Synaesthetic Goblins Taste threshold
There exists a Goblin Slayer fan edit in which every encounter is reframed as a conversation about threshold. It is, against all expectations, very moving.
The Goblin King himself has weighed in on threshold, though his statements are characteristically cryptic. 'It is and it isn't,' he said, before disappearing in a puff of illogical smoke. This is considered the definitive goblin analysis of threshold.

Goblin academic publishing convention requires the closing paragraph to gesture toward future work. Future work on threshold is anticipated, planned, and already, in some quarters, mildly resented. The goblins will press on regardless.
