Our mod team has been hard at work these last few weeks, battling that great Archdemon known as "decision-making"! We've emerged victorious with our brand new Zine Title:

🛡️ "Victory, Vigilance, Sacrifice." ⚔️

Hello Recruits! Thank you all for your patience during our extended inactivity. Unfortunately, behind the scenes several mods had some real life complications that had to be handled first, but we are happy to say we're now able to dedicate our focus to defeating the Blight working on Victory, Vigilance, Sacrifice!

Within the next few days we'll start sharing our mod spotlights, create our FAQ, and reveal our contributor application opening date. If you want to keep track on our progress, be sure to give us a follow here and on Bluesky!
