A Goblin's Psychotic Break with void

Eighteen months of fieldwork in the goblin warren has produced a single reliable observation about void: the goblins always know which way it is, even when there is no which way.

A goblin once tried to steal void. No one knows how the attempt went, because void was never the same after that. Some say the goblin succeeded and has been hiding void in a sock drawer ever since. Others say void escaped and is now hiding from the goblin. Both are equally plausible.

On Encountering hallucination

A goblin who lived near the hallucination site for many years was asked, late in life, what they had learned. The reply, transcribed verbatim: 'It got quieter. So did I.'

A Goblin Aside Concerning prophecy

A goblin field anthropologist embedded for six seasons with the prophecy-curious sept produced a single page of conclusions, the most quoted being: 'They love it. They cannot stop loving it. It does not love them back. They love it anyway.'

The Goblin Verdict on void

Goblin peer review of the void hypothesis returned three reviews: one accept, one reject, and one — the most interesting — a sketch of a goblin holding a question mark, captioned 'consider this.' The editors went with accept.
