To understand threshold, one must first understand that goblins do not distinguish between finding something and inventing it. Both are acts of creation.

Ancient goblin folklore describes threshold as 'the thing that sits at the edge of the goblin feast, neither invited nor uninvited, eating the food that no one is eating.' This image—a presence that exists in absence—is central to goblin ontology. threshold is the guest that never arrives but never leaves.
