Goblin Etiquette When Confronted by 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.

The goblin who runs the small tome-themed shrine at the back of the warren reports increased footfall this month, and a corresponding uptick in donations of buttons, paperclips, and one watch that no longer keeps time but vibrates softly when held up to tome.

Whether this is good or bad depends entirely on whether you have anything the goblins might want to steal.
