Summer is overblown and aging fast, so I feel that I need to post this one quick, before the season falls apart. There are four panels in this series, one for each season.

A fascrinnaytor is a person with apparently fraudulent magic or "psychic power", who somehow manages, by accident, by luck, by who-knows-what-mystery, to produce an end result of real value.
