"Brins D'Éternité" www.revue-brinsdeternite.com/ is a fanzine for imaginary french literature and I've been approached for the #13 cover. What was special, excluding the fact that the #13 was scheduled for fall (Halloween), is the fact that it's a whole new team taking the lead.

Hearing "#13 for fall", I immediately thought about Tarot. #13, often "unnamed" is Death. As for many thinks it's a very bad card to pick up, it's in fact meaning that there's a big change coming through, a change were nothing will be like before... those change that, you need to "kill a part of yourself to rebirth". It tells about a hard time, through the process of rebirth, the period that is heavy and hard, but it's a promise of change. It does not pretend that "it's going to be good", only that the change is inevitable and big.

"Death" is also a main theme of Halloween, so, I've played a bit with the symbols. Lady Death, with the apple... the apple that always comes in a position of change or treat. Will you dare take the apple and come with me ? Will you dare accept the change that I propose, without any promise of "better", only change ??
