As of 4 February 2011, the [[Senilis]]ized [[Meji Hinadori|Meji]] has regained enough control of herself for some magic use: first, to [[sleep|keep]] her touchingly loving [[Ichiro Hinadori|grandfather]] from staying up worrying about her, then to [[fly]] off (for once, in a literal sense, without "the handle" appended) to visit her friend [[Bani Igaaru]]. Bani, not totally coincidentally, has been dragooned into helping arm the [[airship]] fleet (under the watchful eyes of [[General Izayoi]] and a military captain -- maybe the previously seen [[Captain Aphel]], maybe not) for their imminent expedition to [[Praenubilus Astu]].  Meanwhile, Gramps is sleeping off the spell, which Meji also used on an unnamed [[NPC Guards|guard]], and which indeed the old man himself tried on ''her''.  Is insomnia a persistent problem in [[Tsuirakushiti]]?  One wonders.

It certainly isn't a problem in Praenubilus Astu, where chaos, death and destruction seem to reign, although not necessarily in that order.  [[Sarine Elle|Sarine]], [[Jon Amraphel|Jon]], [[Sara Amraphel|Sara]], [[Ellis]] and an assortment of [[battlemage]]s are coming to the conclusion that they are, as Jon puts it, "boned." This depressing conclusion follows from the fact that their expedition has been joined by an unnamed [[elf]] who's fleeing from a similarly unnamed [[monk]] -- a monk who looks like he's just stalking them (maybe for purposes of surveillance) rather than [[time-ninja]]-ing into an attack.  This doesn't make the group very happy, although it's not clear that they're worse off this way than if the guy ''was'' attackingIn any event, it's now clear that the [[Ensigerum]] has linked up with [[Ian Samael|Ian]], which doesn't make anybody very happy.

As of 4 March 2011, the action is back in Praenubilus Astu, where the destruction of the Great Statue of Anilis is affording Jon an opportunity for some great snarkage. (Who would have imagined that "Planet of the Apes" was known in the Poe-verse? Not to be outdone, Nookie gets in a little snarkage of her own, playing resident art critic.) However, it's also giving him, his sister, Sarine and their Tsuirakuan buddies a sense of what they're up against.

Not to worry, though: help is on the way, not just in the form of the expected airship fleet, but also from some unexpected passengers. Meji has used her Senilisized powers to force her way onto one of the ships, causing General Izayoi to decide that he'd better go along to keep her company. This, in turn, causes Meji's friend Bani Igaaru, who was simply loading up the airship with supplies as grunt labor, to get dragooned into going as well. Bani's initial reaction was mainly shock at her friend's grossly amplified magical capabilities (she did a great double take on realizing that Meji was flying), but by now it has dawned on her that this isn't going to be exactly a low-risk junket. The Errant Commentary at the end of the recently-completed chapter makes this point too, not entirely to the liking of Misa, who sees herself being predicted to fill the red-shirted-ensign role. Whether this assessment is accurate remains to be seen.

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.
