What the Goblin King Thinks About void

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

void carries with it a sense of the future-that-didn't-happen, the version of itself it was supposed to become and didn't. Goblins, who excel at noticing what is missing, find this version of void more interesting than the actual one.
