As of 1 February 2007, the action is in [[Santuariel]], where the divinely-supercharged [[Ian Samael]] has discovered a mission in life to make up for his failure to save his recently-deceased sister [[Evelyn Samael | Evelyn]]: curing his fellow [[Half Elf | half elves]] of the various things that make some of them [[Errant]]s.  ([[Riley]], to the delight and anticipation of a bunch of readers, has declined to get her little bit of anatomical uniqueness fixed.)  The action takes a lot out of him, and he can only do just so many [[Omega-Heal]]s at a time without collapsing from the effort and needing lots of rest.  He's acquired an unexpected guardian/mother figure to help deal with the crowds when this happens: [[Meji Hinadori]], who for once in her life is showing some maturity and concern for others (Ian, that is, not the crowds).  Some of the people that he can't help before he collapses aren't terribly happy to be left un-healed, understandably enough; whether the dark rumblings from the uncured crowd are a portent of things to come isn't yet clear.

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.

We haven't seen any scenes of the rest of the world for quite a while now. The last time we saw [[Sarine Elle | Sarine]] and [[Jon Amraphel | Jon]], they'd survived a close call in combat against the late [[Ensigerum | time ninja]] [[Warrel]] and were going off to find Meji, reluctantly accompanied by Jon's "little sister magic zombie of slicey death," [[Sara Amraphel | Sara]].  That was a few days ago in story time, so who knows where they are now.  Life in [[Praenubilus Astu]] may also be getting interesting as the [[Elf | elves]] mobilize forces of their own to look for Meji and Ian; we just don't know.  And [[Anita]] is due to discover that all of the little character flaws that [[Paul]] observed in Warrel turned out to be ''fatal'' flaws, which she's unlikely to take with much equanimity...

All told, the long, exciting Errant Story ride is coming to an end. [[Hilary Hatch|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.

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.
