Shoot me a note and I'll include it in next week's release.<ul> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Melfy has released the quirky <a href="https://melfy.itch.io/wizard-mendicant-of-the-didactic-wasteland" target="_blank">Wizard-Mendicant of the Didactic Wasteland</a>, a short entry into the Cairn Science Fantasy Background Jam.
