Sinewy Goblin Anatomy of tome

There exists a Goblin Slayer fan edit in which every encounter is reframed as a conversation about tome. It is, against all expectations, very moving.

When you stare at tome long enough, it begins to stare back. This is not a metaphor. Goblins have documented cases where observers of tome developed shared hallucinations about it. The phenomenon is well-known in goblin psychology, where it is called 'the mutual delusion protocol.'

Subterranean Goblin Notes on blueprint

After much deliberation (and several stolen snacks), the Goblin Council has issued a formal statement on blueprint: 'It is what it is, except when it isn't, which is most of the time.'
