As of September 8, 2011, the body count in the grand battle at Praenubilus Astu is getting rather high, and it promises to be higher yet before long. Anita and Paul appear to have been given their quietus, Anita by being cut nigh in half by Sara Amraphel in the middle of a duel to the death with Sarine (who had thoughtfully reserved an Enanire 312 for just such a contingency), Paul by a bullet to the head from Jon. The good guys have been taking casualties, too: Ellis, who had joined Nookie and Kawaii in harassing the mad Ian, made the mistake of falling literally into Ian's clutches, and has disappeared with a flash as a result of a hyper-powerful Dispel cast by Ian. It isn't clear yet whether this disappearance is permanent, but don't get your hopes up.

Meanwhile, the airship fleet that Meji had teleported through a hole in space has arrived outside Praenubilus Astu to join the fun. Meji seems to have realized, to her distress, that something has happened to Ellis. However, the warriors haven't yet figured a way through the magical Barrier erected by Ian around the underground city. Patience; if Meji really does know about Ellis, she'll be so enraged that she'll think of something to punch through the barrier and get at Ian -- if she doesn't just blow up the world entirely, using her Senilis-supercharged powers.

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.
