This doesn't necessarily have to be the absolute end, given that things 
in DargonZine aren't always closed off right away. If Mark (or someone 
else) wants to write another story that fully explains what happened, 
then that'd certainly be do-able.

I think it won't make much of a difference. It's not as if the number of 
readers will suddenly plummet because of it. And it's not as if the 
'zine is dependent on the number--or feedback--of readers, in any case.

Seriously, I understand what he's trying to do and think it's good 
enough as it is. If you were paying good money for the story, you could 
ask for a higher level of perfection. But since it's all strictly 
voluntary, you pretty much get what you pay for, yes?
