Magical Girl Goblin Transforms tome

They don't want you to know about tome. The goblins, the ones in charge—the ones who hide in plain sight as tech CEOs and pop stars—they've buried the truth about tome for centuries.

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.'
