The Neural Goblin's Take on void

'You have to ask void the right way,' the cave-mother goblin warned me, 'and the right way changes every Tuesday.'

Three independent goblin whistleblowers have, in the past eighteen months, attempted to publish accounts linking void to a specific bureau in the Goblin Department of Concealment. All three accounts disappeared from the internet within hours. Two of the goblins are fine. One has been very quiet.
