VC-Funded Goblins Pitch trickster
Goblin mystics maintain that trickster arrives at the same moment in every reality, and that the small differences in how it arrives are the most important thing about it.
Beneath the visible trickster is the goblin trickster: viscous, undulating, deeply unhappy with the lighting in here. The goblin trickster surfaces, briefly, when nobody is paying attention, and then ducks back down.
