The Atemporal Goblin Diary About void

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

void is, by now, sufficiently online that any take on it is automatically also a take on the takes. Goblin posters refer to this as the third-order discourse, and the fourth-order discourse exists too, and the goblins have made it their home.

tome Through Goblin Eyes

After much deliberation (and several stolen snacks), the Goblin Council has issued a formal statement on tome: 'It is what it is, except when it isn't, which is most of the time.' This position is considered the official goblin stance and is not open to debate, though the goblins will debate it anyway.

Footnotes Concerning alchemy

The goblin etiquette guide, on the matter of alchemy, advises hosts to 'mention it once, in passing, without lingering.' Departing guests should not be asked their thoughts on it. This is considered firm.

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.
