As of May 9, 2011, push is about to come to shove, as Mejinilis, Bani and various Tsuirakuan battlemages are en route to Praenubilus Astu to join the party. And ah, that party! Jon has hatched a scheme to try to put one over on the seemingly unstoppable coalition of Ianilis (and his zombies) and the Ensigerum forces under Anita and Paul. This led to Ian "shooting" a pair of titmoths at Ian, which has caused a certain degree of confusion. Meanwhile, Jon's little sis has whisked him out of harm's way using her time-ninja powers. Of course, one can't help but have a suspicion that harm is still going to find him, but oh well.
Note also that to the approval of either Sara or Nookie -- each denies it, but there aren't any other choices -- Jon was sent into this escapade with a kiss for good luck courtesy of Sarine. It was all very demure, very reserved, no serious fanservice here -- yet. Sarine, meanwhile, is marshaling a band of elves, plus Tsuirakuan heliomancers, to fight a delaying action to let the main body of surviving elves, shepherded by Misa, escape from the underground city. It's too early to tell whether this tender moment will have lasting repercussions.
In news of the wiki itself, almost all the pages seem to be displaying archived episodes properly now, although there might be some stragglers. And of course, Errant Road is still chock full of adventures and curious characters. Finally, note the successful launch of a new Poe daily, Does Not Play Well With Others; check here for what's going on in that world.
