The Goblin reporter appears, being one of the "speakers" his English is relativly ungarbled, a slightly gravely accent is all that would indicate (by voice) that he is a Goblin.)
Mr Nurg of Gundabad has announed today that he has officaly copyrighted fire. Having done some research and looked into a number of nations copyright offices, he has found no previous claims to the patent for Fire.
Considering that Blood Moon has a reputation for not enforcing patents itself, it has yet to be seen whether or not Mr. Nurg will attempt to enforce this patent himself.
The patent itself only applies to fire, fire-making materials, combustables and so forth are not subject to the copyright. Military grade chemical combustables (napalm, for instance)
(picture of a large napalm fire)
are not subject to the patent.
Mr. Nurg has stated that he plans to patrol Blood Moon's national parks in search of families violating his copyright, whereupon he will 'sue dere cop'right violat'n pants off, dammit.'.

The only copyright violation case brought so far has been against a small child lighting off a firework. The case is in the courts for now but apparently the child made the stirring arguement of:
"Dat guy is a doo doo head."
(Image of Goblin jury nodding and murmuring)
Mr. Nurg was unable to prove that he was not a "doo doo head" and refused on on-site biopsy to determine the contents of his skull.

More news as it comes
(the reporters voice suddenly starts to change pitch wildly, becoming very high and suddenly dropping to a low tuba-ish note)
SQUEE! WHAT DA FREEK ARR JOO DOIN!? STOP MESSIN WIT DA PITCH! GET OFF A DA CONTROLS NOW!
(The Goblin reporter leaps over the desk, knocking over the camera and scattering papers. Sounds of fighting and breaking objects are heard in the background)
