As of 5 December 2008, [[Sarine Elle|Sarine]] and the Amraphels are in [[Tsuirakushiti]], having just [[warp gate|gated]] in (after some badinage in [[Taberna]]) to take [[Meji Hinadori|Meji]] home.  Meji's probably around there somewhere, but not seen yet, which is causing her [[Meji's Grandfather|grandfather]] a certain amount of distress as he meets them at the gate.  (Presumably he's forgotten what a pain in the ass Meji can be.)  They've reached this destination following a rather testy exchange with [[ranger]] [[Sarna]] outside [[Praenubilus Astu]], during which Sarna took every opportunity to set barbs in Sarine regarding her preference for hanging around with smelly humans rather than helping defend the elven city or going to look for [[Senilis]].  Sarine uncharacteristically held her tongue and didn't tell Sarna that she ''was'' following orders and doing something the elves needed done, and didn't even rip her a new one on general principles, even though Sarna really had it coming.  A contrite [[Misa]] was part of this exchange, but quietly returned to the subterranean city to do her part in shoring up the defenses.

As of 6 March 2012, time has advanced indefinitely into the future -- a future where, of all improbable things, a stunningly beautiful [[Sarine Elle|Sarine]] is actually ''[http://www.errantstory.com/2012-02-13/5426 smiling]''.  This unprecedented phenomenon shows up at the start of the Epilogue, where Sarine is relating the history of the [[Poe-verse]] now that the [[Common Era|Age of Meji]] has started.  (We've learned that that is the term for the age that started when [[Meji Hinadori|Meji]] defeated [[Ian Samael|Ianilis]]; see [[Eras of Errant Story]] for an explanation of the various ages and epochs.)  Of course, that history isn't entirely without complications.  Meji has apparently succeeded in repairing much of the damage that Ian caused, and has forged some bonds that will keep the elves from ever attacking [[Santuariel]] again.  That's all good, presumably.  On the other hand, she has also tried to create a new earthly paradise by raising the sunken city of [[Malacia]] from the sea bed, and Sarine is implying that that didn't go completely smoothly.  Details are still lacking, however.

Meanwhile, [[Ian Samael|Ian]], who'd launched into the stratosphere last month following a disconcerting visit to [[Santuariel]], has re-entered at the [[Ensigerum village]], to be scolded by [[Paul]] and [[Anita]] for pre-empting against the elves and squandering the element of surprise.  ''Big'' mistake, as he'd already figured out that Anita was manipulating him, and was dropping by to announce that the shoe is now on the other foot.  He put the kibosh on their attempts to bring him under their thumbs, showed them who has the ''real'' power, and in a surprising turn, now seems to be taking seriously a sarcastic remark by Paul that he might do better looking for allies among the [[troll]]s.  However, the scene shifted before we could see where that little twist is going to lead.

No news of [[Emerylon]], except that it's still a mess, and that the [[Veracian Church]] is trying to cover up what really happened -- sensibly enough.

As of 6 March 2012, time has advanced indefinitely into the future -- a future where, of all improbable things, a stunningly beautiful Sarine is actually smiling. This unprecedented phenomenon shows up at the start of the Epilogue, where Sarine is relating the history of the Poe-verse now that the Age of Meji has started. (We've learned that that is the term for the age that started when Meji defeated Ianilis; see Eras of Errant Story for an explanation of the various ages and epochs.) Of course, that history isn't entirely without complications. Meji has apparently succeeded in repairing much of the damage that Ian caused, and has forged some bonds that will keep the elves from ever attacking Santuariel again. That's all good, presumably. On the other hand, she has also tried to create a new earthly paradise by raising the sunken city of Malacia from the sea bed, and Sarine is implying that that didn't go completely smoothly. Details are still lacking, however.

All told, the long, exciting Errant Story ride is coming to an end. Impy (who, we're delighted to report, is back among the living) has posted a time line of the Poe-verse that includes references to many stories and tales yet to come, so there'll still be more when Errant Story itself wraps up. And, of course, Errant Road continues to be full of interesting characters. So life in the Poe-verse is still pretty good, really.
