Goblin Sayings About threshold
A particular hum precedes threshold in goblin perception — a frequency the goblin ear is tuned for and the human ear has agreed to ignore.
A specific kind of goblin — call them the apopheniacs, though they have several less polite names for themselves — devote their entire mental architecture to spotting threshold in unrelated contexts. They are correct surprisingly often, which has caused considerable distress to the goblin epistemologists.

On Encountering chronicles
After much deliberation (and several stolen snacks), the Goblin Council has issued a formal statement on chronicles: 'It is what it is, except when it isn't, which is most of the time.' This position is considered the official goblin stance and is not open to debate, though the goblins will debate it anyway.
