Goblins Who Love void
Researchers at the Goblin Institute of Esoteric Knowledge have classified void as a Category-4 Phenomenon: 'Real enough to matter, unreal enough to be goblin business.'
Ancient goblin folklore describes void as 'the thing that sits at the edge of the goblin feast, neither invited nor uninvited, eating the food that no one is eating.' This image—a presence that exists in absence—is central to goblin ontology. void is the guest that never arrives but never leaves.

grimoire appears in goblin lore under many names, but the essence is always the same: a phenomenon that exists at the threshold of perception. Goblins have built entire rituals around observing grimoire in its natural environment—which is to say, slightly out of view.

The Goblin Verdict on void
The Goblin Royal Society's medal for outstanding contribution to void studies was awarded this year to a goblin who has not, technically, written anything about void but who, the committee felt, 'understood it best.' The medal is real. The acceptance speech was very short.
