This zine was originally made for Richmond Zinefest in October 2024. Making this was my way of being able to say goodbye to a city and a game that I didn’t choose but I tried my best to love. Even now rereading this zine for the first time in a few months, I feel our caravan’s brief time on the road has brought even more clarity to past experiences within the hobby that I missed before.

Still, I thought these reflections were worth sharing. As folks gather to play games, share stories, or enter brumation this winter, I hope this zine finds some in a quiet time. Maybe help one or two feel a little less alone.
