The Ancient Goblin Scrolls of threshold

Per the goblin AI safety team's red-teaming report, threshold is among the prompts that most reliably elicit unaligned goblin behavior.

On the goblin cosmological maps, threshold sits in the region labeled 'too small to matter at this scale, too persistent to ignore.' The goblin cosmologists have not redrawn this region in some time.

Salvage Notes: delusion

Goblin engineers building near a delusion-adjacent site reportedly leave a small offering — a coin, a button, a snack — outside the worksite each morning. The offerings are gone by lunch. Nobody asks where.

Salvage Notes: atlas

Across the goblin warrens, atlas is one of a small handful of phenomena around which entirely separate goblin communities, with no contact between them, have independently developed remarkably similar superstitions. The goblin folklorists are intrigued.

The Goblin Verdict on threshold

The goblin closing argument on threshold consists of pointing at threshold, then pointing at the audience, then sitting back down. Goblin juries find this persuasive.
