Welcome to Issue 28: Harbinger! This issue contains poems and stories that will lash you to the sails, flow with the change in tides, invest your body and soul into reforestation, soar into your own power, find flaws in your code, solve the puzzle of your own demise, come out of your shell into your true self, scry through a mermaids polluted necropsy, order a short stack of apocalyptic humor, discover the small wonders of life with a synthetic soul, find out what the cards have in store, and ride off into the sunset.
