As of 2 July 2008, the comic has '''resumed''' following a one-month break -- life is good again!  The action is in [[Praenubilus Astu]], where a magical-destruction-slinging battle between [[Ian Samael]] (and his passenger [[Anilis]], with [[Meji Hinadori | Meji]] and [[Ellis]] along for the ride) and the [[Elf | elven]] military under [[Commander]] [[Nisotta]] has been raging.  Ian had been getting the better of things until an unnamed elf (at least probably unnamed, rather than the recently-introduced [[Viradior]] [[Gilliam]]) tossed an [[Inanire 312]] anti-magic grenade at his feet.  In the resulting break in the magical mayhem, Ian looks like he's taken first a serious magical blast and then a ridiculously fatal sword thrust ... but it's probably not as fatal as it looks.

As of 8 August 2008, the physical violence in [[Praenubilus Astu]] has given way (although maybe not for long) to verbal sparring, as the Powers That Be among the [[Elf | elves]] try to assign blame (read: blame each other) for the [[Ian Samael | Ian]] fiasco.  [[High Commander]] [[Yenhael]] and [[Commander]] [[Nisotta]] are going at it hammer and tongs over just about everything imaginable, including tactical blunders during the fight, what to do with [[Meji Hinadori | Meji]] (who's been transferred to higher-class [[Consulate | digs]] where [[Jon Amraphel | Jon]] and probably [[Sara Amraphel | Sara]] are also holed up), freeing [[Barin]] from the clutches of the [[Tsuiraku]]ans who've bagged him until Meji is released, and of course, each other.  [[Sarine Elle | Sarine]] is, for the moment, a silent spectator at this little bit of badinage, and she doesn't think it'll end well --reasonably enough.

Meanwhile, [[Sarine Elle | Sarine]], [[Jon Amraphel]] and his sister [[Sara Amraphel | Sara]] have been offstage somewhere in the city, but are coming to join the fray, although Jon is marveling at Sarine's insistence on running toward, not away from, the fight.  There's been a little humorous by-play between Sarine and Sara over a weapon that's probably not trapped, but that's a side show.

As for the battle itself, it's reached an inconclusive end, as the hacked-up Ian, after dispatching no fewer than 87 elves (a number that Nisotta and Yenhael rub each other's noses in repeatedly), has fled the scene like a missile launch.  He's no doubt healing up and planning more violence against the elves, but we don't know where, when, or how.

Of [[Tsuirakushiti]] and the [[Ensigerum village]], nothing new, but patience.

As of 8 August 2008, the physical violence in Praenubilus Astu has given way (although maybe not for long) to verbal sparring, as the Powers That Be among the elves try to assign blame (read: blame each other) for the Ian fiasco. High Commander Yenhael and Commander Nisotta are going at it hammer and tongs over just about everything imaginable, including tactical blunders during the fight, what to do with Meji (who's been transferred to higher-class digs where Jon and probably Sara are also holed up), freeing Barin from the clutches of the Tsuirakuans who've bagged him until Meji is released, and of course, each other. Sarine is, for the moment, a silent spectator at this little bit of badinage, and she doesn't think it'll end well --reasonably enough.

As for the battle itself, it's reached an inconclusive end, as the hacked-up Ian, after dispatching no fewer than 87 elves (a number that Nisotta and Yenhael rub each other's noses in repeatedly), has fled the scene like a missile launch. He's no doubt healing up and planning more violence against the elves, but we don't know where, when, or how.
