Back when mortals were first crawling down from the trees and figuring out things like foraging and hunting and making fire, one faerie saw the potential in them and realized that they would become a dire threat to the immortals if allowed to develop any further. To deal with these up-jumped animals, the faerie gathered others who shared his concerns and committed them to humanity’s extinction. This faerie became the first Goblin King and, even though successor Kings arose over time, his followers were henceforth called goblins.
