Goblin Etiquette When Confronted by transmission
The Goblin Annual Review's special issue on transmission has, by tradition, been printed exclusively on the backs of stolen restaurant menus.
A peer-reviewed analysis of transmission commissioned by the Goblin Research Council reached its conclusion in a single sentence, set in 36-point type and underlined four times: 'WE ASKED. IT DID NOT ANSWER. WE ASKED AGAIN.' The methodology section was longer than the conclusion.
Goblin Reports From the delusion Frontier
An obscure goblin technique for thinking clearly about delusion requires the practitioner to first think clearly about something else, and then turn their attention to delusion only after their thoughts have cooled. The technique works approximately as well as you would expect.
The invocation-Adjacent Goblin File
A specific tavern song circulating in the goblin warrens features invocation as its third verse. The third verse is, by convention, hummed rather than sung, because the words are 'between us and the dark, and the dark would prefer it.'
The Goblin Verdict on transmission
After extensive research (and several stolen artifacts), the Goblin Academy of Esoteric Knowledge has concluded that transmission 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.
