This issue is a revival, a call to the sweet sweat of the summer celebration. This is the breath of wind that sweeps before the storm, that tells us of things to come and of things that will disappear when we look away. These stories are the seeds and fruits that have lain dormant for some time, and now they are all sprouting.

Here are stories about revenge, stories about justice, stories about what we get when we ask for too much without understanding the triumverate of suggestion, desperation, and denial. And there are stories of loss and sorrow and hope, because the wheel always turns. What was returns, and what is expires. On and on, above and below.

This issue contains stories from Daniel David Froid, Megan Lee Beals, Pen Anderson, Elou Carroll, Basile Lebret, Brian U. Garrison, H. L. Fullerton, Jetse de Vries, Jonathan Wood, Devan Barlow, and Ben Curl.
