As of 2 April 2007, the scene has shifted to somewhere in the boonies of [[Veracia]], where [[Sarine Elle | Sarine]] and [[Jon Amraphel | Jon]] (and [[Ellis]]) have acquired a somewhat unwilling fellow traveler: Jon's sister [[Sara Amraphel | Sara]], whom they subdued in the grand melee with her instructor, the late [[Warrel]].  She's looking a bit glum, not so much because of the magical [[manacles]] that Sarine slapped on her, but out of fear of what the [[Ensigerum]] will do to her if she goes back, since she "failed" by getting captured and "letting" Warrel get killed.

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 that it's an unrealistic fear, to be sure.  Back in the Ensigerum village, [[Anita]] and [[Paul]] have had a tete-a-tete on Ensigerum strategy, during which Anita has characteristically jumped to all manner of bogus conclusions about collaborations or confrontations (or maybe both at once) among the [[Gewehr Wraiths | Gewehr]], [[Veracian Church]], [[Elf | elves]], and who knows who else.  Her response is equally in character: kill 'em all.  We also learn that the Ensigerum have noticed an increase in the number of elves wandering around in [[human]] territories doing who-knows-what.  (Of course, we, the detached readers/Greek chorus, know they're looking for [[Ian Samael | Ian]] and [[Meji Hinadori | Meji]], who are still safely ensconced in [[Santuariel]], but Anita doesn't know that.)

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.

In the midst of it all, there has been a marvelously innuendo-loaded little aside about [[Durus Flamma]] swords and "magic elf crystals."

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.
