Yeah ... BOOM.
Now I'm insanely curious as to what it is that causes people to be uncertain about her responsibility in .. whatever it is that happens next. Sounds seriously iffy.

I have / have been having the feeling that the horrible things Meji is going to do-ish are going to be the subject of Another Story. Or, as it were, a Legend. Or maybe a Myth.

Re: 2012-03-05: Another Story
These conditional statements that really say the opposite are growing a bit tedious. Do elves really talk like that? If I were to rule Earth with an iron hand, I'm certain that concerns that I would abuse my power, say to make a giant but tasteful pile of human skulls or somesuch, would be proven unfounded... for about a week. Past that initial period of hopeful optimism, the use of the phrase "well-founded concerns" seems a bit more accurate.All those initial fears and worries we all hadd [sic] that Meji would misuse the Gods' powers, try to conquer the world, or become like Ian were proven unfounded... for the first ten years.

I knew this was too quiet. Demigods never rule in peace for long.

Re: 2012-03-05: Another Story
I don't think whatever happened was her fault primarily. She probably did something foolish upon provocation, but all her actions post-ascendance show rational benevolence. And before her ascendance she was a fairly reasonable person too, who only killed in self defense and was slightly perturbed when others did so unnecessarily (like when Jon shot those guys and Ian splattered the guards).
I'm as proud of Meji as some comics ago, it's just easier to say so now without looking like I'm (or actually) gloating too much. We all knew it couldn't last forever, history doesn't just end, though I had hoped the new city would last for more than ten years - maybe Malacia is just jinxed (not trying to take any responsibility off of her ).
Anyway Sarine gets her happy ending by the chapter pic so I'm guessing the world doesn't go all upside down.
And yeah, I prefered her old style of clothes.

Re: 2012-03-05: Another Story
Ten years is a good time for a rising city. Ten years till the frst war or conflict is rather good. And well, of course it wasn't her fault. The evil powers lead by the scanner must be the force behind it.

...and there it is - the sentence we all knew was coming. The good times couldn't last. This is Poe, after all.
