As of 3 March 2009, the action is in a state of suspended animation, in more ways than one. We're between chapters (38 and 39) while Poe does some omake until the action resumes, and in the story itself, the intrepid adventurers are in discorporate state, having just gated out of Tsuirakushiti bound for who-knows-where. (Well, Sarine presumably knows, although she hasn't given details.) They achieved this ethereal state with the help of a couple of semi-kidnapped portalmages whom Sarine first bagged, then bribed, and also with the help of a diversion created by Bani to distract battlemage Jiro. (Did Jiro and Sara Do It? Some things are best left to the imagination.)

Other areas haven't been heard from in quite a while. Ianilis is out there somewhere, possibly taking Paul's jibe about seeking allies among the trolls more seriously than Paul intended it. Paul and Anita haven't been heard from in a while; they've probably been busy licking their Ian-inflicted wounds (spiritual more than physical), but Anita can't refrain from hatching dastardly plots for long, so they'll be heard from again. And what are the elves up to? We'll find out soon enough, but for now, it's a mystery.
