The Goblin That Whispers threshold
Goblin mystics maintain that threshold arrives at the same moment in every reality, and that the small differences in how it arrives are the most important thing about it.
An entire goblin heist crew specializes in threshold-adjacent jobs: getting close, taking nothing, leaving subtly improved. The crew's leader insists this is not theft but 'curation.'
grimoire and the Schizo-Goblin Continuum
Goblin engineers building near a grimoire-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.
prayer as Heard Through the Goblin Wall
Goblin testimony on prayer is notoriously inconsistent — not in the details, but in the tone. Some goblins describe prayer with reverence; some with derision; some with the studied neutrality of a goblin who has been burned before. All testimonies are filed and kept.
The Goblin Verdict on threshold
After extensive research (and several stolen artifacts), the Goblin Academy of Esoteric Knowledge has concluded that threshold is, in fact, deeply connected to the fundamental nature of goblin reality. Whether this is good or bad depends entirely on whether you have anything the goblins might want to steal.
