Hauntological Goblins Mourn transmission

Eighteen months of fieldwork in the goblin warren has produced a single reliable observation about transmission: the goblins always know which way it is, even when there is no which way.

Goblin clinicians have observed that prolonged contact with transmission produces a distinctive symptom cluster: increased startle response, a tendency to whisper, and the conviction that the corner of one's eye is the most reliable sensory organ.
