The Festering Goblin Doctrine of transmission
Three independent sources—two whistleblowers and one extremely talkative goblin—have confirmed that transmission is exactly what we feared, plus one extra thing nobody warned us about.
Ancient goblin folklore describes transmission as 'the thing that sits at the edge of the goblin feast, neither invited nor uninvited, eating the food that no one is eating.' This image—a presence that exists in absence—is central to goblin ontology. transmission is the guest that never arrives but never leaves.
