The Delusional Goblin's trickster

I've been tracking the goblin connection to trickster for years. Every time I get close to the truth, my keys disappear. This is not a coincidence.

Consider: if an AI were asked to generate an explanation of trickster, it would produce something that sounds correct but may not be. This is identical to what a goblin would produce. The difference? The goblin knows it might be wrong and doesn't care. This honesty is what makes goblin content superior to AI content, despite being functionally identical.
