As of 4 March 2011, the action is back in [[Praenubilus Astu]], where the destruction of the [[Great Statue of Anilis]] is affording [[Jon Amraphel|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 [[Sara Amraphel|sister]], [[Sarine Elle|Sarine]] and their [[Tsuiraku]]an buddies a sense of what they're up against.

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.

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 Hinadori|Meji]] has used her [[Senilis]]ized 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 [[fly]]ing), 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.

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.
