I’m sorry for the Know-it-all-Post but this part of ihrHertz Magazine always makes me laugh!
It’s supposed to be German but it makes zero sense.
What they’re trying to say is that it/the story “will be continued”.
But “fortgefahren” translates to “has been continued”
It’s the passive and past tense of “fortfahren”.
BUT!
In German you would not use the word “fortfahren” (which is the basic verb of “fortgefahren”). You would use “fortsetzen”.
If they wanted to say, that it will be continued it would be “wird fortgesetzt”. If they wanted to point to an even more distant future they could use “wird fortgesetzt werden”.
Usually in any book/tv series/movie/story/whatsoever you find the wording: “Fortsetzung folgt” which translates 1-on-1 to “continuation follows/will be following”.
That however sounds dumb in english. Hence the english version usually used being “will be continued” or “to be continued”.
“Fortgefahren” however does not - in any attempt of adapting German language into it - make maaaaany sense at all. It’s like not-germanish is the most not-germanish way...
Then again, the title itself “ihr Hertz” is incorrectly written as it would be “ihr Herz” which means “Her heart” (3rd person singular female). If you printed the start “I” of “ihr” large then it would be “your heart” as in “Yours, Sir” and “Yours, hers and his” (2nd person plural). But anyway: there is no “t” in “Herz”. Not any at all.
And “praechtig & schick” or rather “prächtig und schick” sounds a bit like you’re talking to your grandparents :)
