Heads up! We have a brand-new announcement, so we would appreciate if you took the time to read this.
Please take the time to read this. - "Hello everyone! Now that we're back in business, we'd like to announce a few updates. Starting off, we are pleased to announce that Snoof [five5sixers], our writing mod, will now be the head of the project. Additionally, due to the tariff issue, we must limit our zine's release to digital ONLY. More information on this matter will come soon. Thank you for your support and understanding as we make adjustments to see this project through. If you have any questions, do not hesitate to ask us through any means." A special thanks from the moderation team.

Attention! We have a new announcement for everyone, please take your time to read it.
Hello, all zine artists, writers, and staff! We have now passed the stage where our contributors have been selected for this project. We thank you for your patience as we sent out all e-mails. If you did not receive one, please do not hesitate to contact us. It has also come to our attention that the head moderator Arill has made the decision to step down due to personal issues. However, he is still involved in the MGS2: Sons of Liberty "Inherited Freedom" project. We will announce the new head moderator soon. This has been an announcement from the MGS2: INHERITED FREEDOM Zine Project Team.

Not easily deterred, he enlisted the help of an old wolf. “Why are these the only grapes upon this vine?” Isengrim asked. “Surely they’ve been mistaken as sour,” Reynard rebuffed. The wolf grumbled doubts, to which the fox tutted a promise to share the spoils. “I don’t like grapes,” Isengrim reminded – yet Reynard was prepared. “They’ll make nice bait for dumber animals.” Agreeing to this, Isengrim approached the vine. With a sly yip, the fox used the wolf as a ramp. Reynard snatched the grapes between his jaws and disappeared into the treeline, leaving poor old Isengrim dumbfounded.”
