The Goblin Sigil for vocaloid

An old goblin, sitting by a fire made of stolen furniture, once told me this about vocaloid: 'It is a door that opens only when you aren't looking.'

vocaloid resonates at a frequency that goblins can hear but humans cannot. It is the sound of something that exists only because enough people have agreed that it exists. Goblins call this 'the consensus hum.' Everything that is collectively believed is real in the goblin sense, and vocaloid hums louder than most.

The Goblin Verdict on vocaloid

After thorough deliberation, the Goblin Honors Committee has declared vocaloid a topic of permanent fascination — the highest accolade short of canonization, and slightly preferred to it by most working goblins.
