Lastly, I want to show my appreciation to everyone involved in the making of this zine: to the contributors, for doing a fantastic job on their pieces, to the other mods, for making sure that things went as smoothly as possible, to @radishearts for organizing the whole thing, and last but definitely not the least, to False, for serving as an inspiration to all of us. I hope this zine is enough to show you how much we appreciate you and your hard work.

This piece is inspired by False's HC season 4 disgraced sheriff character who breaks out of jail and decides to go on the run! Not wanting to be noticed, she disguises herself and escapes Hermitcraft with her trusty steed, Bullseye, never to be seen again (or so they say đ).
Modding for this zine was such a treat; everyone was so wonderful and the finished product turned out amazing!!! Thank you @radishearts especially for all the work you did in putting this togetherđ«¶

â ⟠â
With a final, stubborn groan, the dingy coffee machine sputters to life beneath Falseâs palm. She gives it an approving pat.
However slowly it churns away, the rich, earthen aroma of fresh coffee is a welcome sensation once it reaches her nose, though she powers it down for now. The end of a season is always a mad dash to finish projects, clean up bases, and bid farewells, and the past few sleepless days have been no differentâthroughout them, False has mostly subsisted on admittedly rather thrown-together thermos tea, but itâs nice to cross âbar repairsâ off her to-do list.
Almost. False eyes the empty counterspace next to the machine. Sheâll have to restock the mugs first.
After a brief foray into the storage roomââorganize shulkersâ still sits unchecked at the bottom of her listâFalse is left carefully balancing a tower of cups tucked between her palm and chin. The wobble back to the bar is all of fifteen paces, but for the entirety of its duration, stray worries catch and tangle within Falseâs mind as her gaze flits across her base.
She loves itâdonât get her wrong! Through a plethora of experimenting and tweaking of her own techniques, sheâs brought to life what she had envisioned, down to the grime of the darkened main hub and the welcoming light of each building within it. Itâs a cool base with cool little details thatâs cool to wander around. It might even be one of her favorite bases sheâs ever created. Still, she fiddles with individual banners, unsure of their color, and finds herself agonizing over walls sheâs already swapped out once or twice.
Itâs fine. If somethingâs crooked, or slightly out of place, it just matches the aesthetic more, right? Nothing to agonize over!
In practice, itâs a little harder to banish her perfectionism. She starts to stack the mugs to the left of the coffee machine, changes her mind, then re-stacks them to the right.
False goes back and forth between the bar and her storage room to grab all the cups, plus a few extra embellishments she thought the bar could use. Halfway through, the tell-tale whoosh of an elytra interrupts Falseâs process. She turns just in time to see Pearl, dressed in her postmaster ensemble and holding a white shulker box, gliding through the hubâs entrance.
âUh, hello?â False calls out, arms full of mugs, banners, and a single flower pot. Pearl spots her and brightens, jogging over with a wave.
âHeya, Falsie!â she cheerfully greets. âNeed a hand with all that?â
Pearl gives her brim a tap. âIndeed I have!â she says. âThe sun hat doesnât match the uniform as well, now, does it?â
âI guess not.â False reaches the counter and dumps her materials onto it. Pearl comes around the bar and perches on the stool opposite to False. âWhat are you doing over here? Also, do you want some coffee?â
âOh! Iâd love some.â Pearl sets the shulker down and pushes it Falseâs way. âAnyway, weâre so close to the end, now, I figured Iâd personally deliver everyoneâs last bits of mail,â she explains. âCall me sentimental.â
âSounds nice,â False says. She tucks the shulker under the counter to investigate later and sets a mug under the coffee machineâs spout, poking at it until it begins to drip. âIâll bet itâs exciting seeing everyoneâs bases, too.â
âThatâs my secret second reason,â Pearl says with a wink. âEveryoneâs been working so hard on their final projects; itâs fun getting them to show it off.â
âThatâs a nice way to end off the season,â False says. âHave you got everything at yours finished up?â
âYou know how bases goâthereâs always more that could be added. But I reckon Iâm at a good point to call it done,â Pearl says. She leans over the bar conspiratorily. âYouâre cued into my secret now, and thereâs a lovely base here just waiting to be toured. So, False, Iâve gotta ask⊠whatâcha been up to?â
The coffee in Pearlâs waiting mug has only just fully covered the bottom rim, and sitting around staring at it wonât hurry the process along. False dusts off her gloves and leads the way.
Pearl, as it turns out, is a fantastic audience. As they meander through the main hub, she compliments thoroughly, and asks all sorts of questions about the base and Falseâs season as a whole. Sheâs easy to talk to, and soon False finds herself rambling about the building techniques sheâs utilized and the story sheâs worked to construct, from the broad strokes to the nitty-gritty sheâs still scrutinizing.
Within the circle, they stop to discuss the phantoms and give the stable horses carrots. Outside, they loop around the lower perimeter and stop beneath the main tree to feel the cool breeze rustling through its massive bough. Its lanterns capture their discussion for a fair few minutes before Pearl spots the river course across the way, and they both agree to meet up for a race before the seasonâs end.
What really gets Pearl excited are the airships.
âOh, False, these are wonderful!â she exclaims, running a hand appreciatively over the curved hull of the docked ship theyâre standing by. âThis guy looks like it should be running supplies across the galaxy and back.â
False chuckles. âSomething like that,â she says. âI havenât thought too much about specific lore, honestly. Itâs nice it comes across anyway.â
âIntentional or not, youâre a fantastic storyteller,â Pearl tells her. She turns to look behind them, a hand shielding her eyes from the late morning sun. âGosh, this is an incredible base. You always create wonderful things, but youâve really outdone yourself with this.â
âYou flatter me,â False says, feeling both the warmth and the slight antsiness that manifest when it comes time to accept a particularly earnest compliment. âI wasnât sure about the copper on these, honestly.â
âDonât sell yourself so short, mate!â Pearl playfully nudges her. âItâs looking awesome around here, seriously. I know Iâve loved exploring it.â
âIâm glad to hear it,â False says sincerely. âWanna go see some science-y stuff?â
âIâd enjoy nothing more.â
By the time they return to the bar, the mug under the coffee machine is perfectly full. After adding some sugar and a dash of cream, False slides it across the counter to Pearl, who immediately takes a hefty swig. If itâs too hot, she doesnât show it.
âAs lovely as the base,â she says with a wink, and turns the cup in her hands to inspect its flecked design. âIâm gonna miss it! Everything weâve all made. This season has felt really special, you know?â
âYeah, it has,â False agrees. âDo you have any ideas yet? For the next season?â
âNot quite yet,â Pearl says between sips. âIâll have to see where things take me, you know? Find inspiration along the way, after Iâve found a good spot.â
âThatâs fair,â False says. âIâve got a⊠vibe, for mine. No plans, but I think itâll be cool.â
âI canât wait to see it,â Pearl says. âHonestly, itâd be pretty fun being close enough to watch it pop up in real time. I donât think weâve ever been neighbors, have we?â
False casts her memory back to the previous seasons theyâve shared. âI donât think we have,â she says after a moment. âIt'd be nice being nearby, though.â
âWell, we canât say anything too quickly, but if we happen to wander in the same direction, Iâd be pretty darn happy about it,â Pearl says.
âI think Iâd be pretty happy about it too,â False says, smiling.
âWeâve come to an agreement, then, havenât we?â Pearl polishes off her coffee and sets the empty mug gently down. âThis has been wonderful. Do you accept tips?â
False laughs. âHavenât set up the tip jar yet, you caught me.â
âIn that case, then,â Pearl says, slinging her mailbag back over her shoulder and hoisting her shulker onto her hip, âenjoy a cup yourself for me, will you? Itâs quite tasty.â
âWill do,â False says, and gives a little salute.
âThanks for the tour!â Pearl calls over her shoulder as she spreads her wings wide. âCatch you next season!â
âSee you!â False waves to Pearlâs retreating back. When the sound of rockets fully disperses, False grabs the mug and washes it out, sets it to rest alongside the others, and gets back to work.
Hours later, after the sunny afternoon has cooled into a crisp evening, False puts away her empty thermos and sets herself a cup to brew while she tidies her storage room. The coffee machine dings just as sheâs picking up the final shulker, and the mugâs heat is welcome through her gloves. She brings her drink over to the western entrance to watch the sunset. All sheâs built is bathed in gold; surrounded by warmth, sheâs satisfied with it in its entirety.
When she brings her coffee to her lips, she finds it to be delicious.
this is a web weave i made for @falsesymmetryzine, meant to represent her Hermitcraft season 6! for those who don't know, a web weave is essentially a digital collage of quotes and pictures from all sorts of sources (paintings, songs, interviews, poems etc) meant to tell some bigger story or display a central theme. I'm so glad I was able to be a part of this project, it was so much fun!!
