Greetings Citizens, Last night we learned that the voice of our game master – the one and only Wayne June has passed on. Wayne was kind enough to reply to my email about working together, and while our plans for future projects will not come to pass, we feel fortunate to have worked with him on Liberty: Vigilance.
