Notes:
(1) It slightly bothers me that the flashback on Wreath wasn't delivered in the native Esperanto.
- Being also a dream, I suppose it gets a pass.
(2) We get several nice returns and reveals here.
- A few seeds are planted with Squire that I'm sure will lead to at least one Chekhov's gun situation.
(3) Alana's new hairdo is somewhat of a return to her original hairdo.

For some reason, I got it in my head that the new arc would take as long to come out as the previous hiatus. Probably because I wasn't reading the series back when it was on a regular schedule. In any case, pleasant surprises are always welcome :)
"...native Esperanto ... "Cool! I've got to find a copy! At the moment I'm just getting started with my study of Esperanto, fitting it in with other things, but having a story to read would really help!

You're not the only one that had gotten it into their head that the wait was going to be a long one because I was expecting the same thing. I mean, they kind of conditioned their readers for it, didn't they? XD

Glad it's not as dead a language as people keep saying. Though, I should mention that this issue doesn't feature any Esperanto. However, practically every volume of this series will have some. It's the magic language of the moon people :)

Though, part of me thinks that it might be a clever long-term ploy to make people think these are coming out super-fast. They could have a whole bunch stockpiled for all we know Lol 😅

I suspect trade-waiters would be champing at the bit :)

Hahaha, yes, that is true XD I cannot imagine having waited as long as we did for issue #60 to come out and then having to wait even longer for the trade to come out... that sounds torturous, actually.
Alexandra Elend Wolf wrote: "Hahaha, yes, that is true XD I cannot imagine having waited as long as we did for issue #60 to come out and then having to wait even longer for the trade to come out... that sounds torturous, actually."There's advantages to reading in singles and advantages to reading in trade. For me, it's less the wait than the possibility of spoilers that has me reading them as they're released.

I don't mind spoilers that much most of the time so for me it is purely because I'm way too impatient XD Why should I wait if there is already content there? Lol.

An as I said previously, there are benefits to reading both ways. I'll read it again in trade when it comes out too :)

@Shira Some Esperanto from Volume 2, for your reference. As I mentioned, it's scattered throughout the series, always written in blue text :)
