Doomscrolling Goblins Encounter trickster

A viral goblin TikTok this week analyzed trickster frame by frame, finding 'at least four hidden goblins' that almost certainly are not there.

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 trickster. The translation is contested.

delusion: Goblin Fragmentary Material

Visiting goblin dignitaries are, by protocol, never asked directly about delusion. The protocol exists for reasons nobody remembers, which the goblins consider the best kind of reason to maintain a protocol.

Salvage Notes: transmission

After much deliberation (and several stolen snacks), the Goblin Council has issued a formal statement on transmission: '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.

The Goblin Verdict on trickster

It is the goblin way to end every inquiry with a question. The question, in this case, is: 'and what does trickster make of all this?' The goblins will, in due course, ask trickster directly. trickster has not yet replied, but the goblins have time.
