As of 7 January 2012, the grand battle in Praenubilus Astu seems to have finally come to an end, although one last bit of terminal(?) stupidity by the elves may lead to a bit more bloodshed -- their own blood, almost certainly. Meji has confirmed that Ian is dead, most likely blown away by a gunshot from a pistol conveniently dropped by ChekhovJon earlier in proceedings so that Meji could pick it up. With the main Big Bad kaput and the surviving Ensigerum having left the scene for who-knows-where (the Ensigerum village, presumably), things should be heading for the happily-ever-after stage -- should.
Unfortunately, it's not that simple. Some unnamed elven idiot (we'll call him E.I. for short -- it would be nice if Poe would name a few more of these elf mooks) is now blustering at Meji to "surrender" (sic) Senilis and Anilis, or else the elves will come hunting her with everything they can still manage. E.I. has demanded that Sarine, Misa, and even the Paedagogusi on scene (Nookie and Kawaii) stop Meji from leaving with her divine passengers, which is producing some quite understandable snarkage from Jon, not to mention a look on Meji's face not unlike the one Indiana Jones had when he blew the sword swinger away in the memorable "Raiders of the Lost Ark" scene. It wouldn't be unreasonable to expect the outcome of this final confrontation to be much the same as that one. Anyway, there it all stands, and the end of the story really is drawing nigh.
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 that Impy is finally regaining her health, at least to the point where she can post messages again, if not get the store fully back operational quite yet. Bravo, Scary Little Red-Headed Girl; we've been pulling for you!
