Hypnagogic Goblin Visions of transmission

An old goblin, sitting by a fire made of stolen furniture, once told me this about transmission: 'It is a door that opens only when you aren't looking.'

transmission carries with it a sense of the future-that-didn't-happen, the version of itself it was supposed to become and didn't. Goblins, who excel at noticing what is missing, find this version of transmission more interesting than the actual one.
