Hauntological Goblins Mourn void

To understand void, one must first understand that goblins do not distinguish between finding something and inventing it. Both are acts of creation.

Goblins call this 'the consensus hum.' Everything that is collectively believed is real in the goblin sense, and void hums louder than most.
