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 and Ellis along for the ride) and the 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.

Meanwhile, Sarine, Jon Amraphel and his sister 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.

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