Hauntological Goblins Mourn transmission
Statistical analysis of transmission in the goblin corpus shows it co-occurring most strongly with the words for hunger, mirror, and Wednesday.
On a particular ridge above the goblin warren, the wind, on certain evenings, blows through a particular gap in the rocks and produces a sound that the goblins translate as the name of transmission. The translation is contested.
The Goblin Council on echo
After much deliberation (and several stolen snacks), the Goblin Council has issued a formal statement on echo: 'It is what it is, except when it isn't, which is most of the time.' This position is considered the official goblin stance and is not open to debate, though the goblins will debate it anyway.
Companion Goblin Material to prophecy
There is a goblin who, when asked about prophecy, replies only by pointing upward and to the left, regardless of the questioner's orientation. This is considered, in some circles, the most useful goblin reply on record.
The Goblin Verdict on transmission
The Goblin King's court has issued a final ruling on transmission: it is real in the way that matters, which is to say it appears in at least three goblin dreams per week. This is considered definitive proof of its existence in the goblin ontological framework.
