After the defeat of the Skull Port Fleet by the Circle a new Sea Lord was to be voted on and after much work Jake was elected as the new Sea Lord. After 5 and 1/2 years as Sea Lord, Jake's rule came to an end when the Wyld Hunt came to Coral and burnt and sacked the Island Nation in search of the Circle. 

Ruphio tried numerous times to blackmail the circle once he found out that they were exalted. Darius told Ruphio about the circles secret in exchange for freedom and jade.  In the end Ruphio was robbed badly and ended his own life. He was deathly afraid of cherub messengers, and in an attempt to escape the their torment he cut off both of his ears and hung himself. 

Surazal was a mid level advisor in the city of Blight's Eye, until he became Exalted. Now he is on leave from his duties as an advisor, but still stays in touch with his friends in the local government.  His main purpose in life these days is learning all he can about the Manse under Nanabe's Keep. He knows that it currently is as big as any he has ever read about. He also knows this one has the potential to go one step beyond that. He was recently asked to look into the death of Ruphio's nephew, which he turned down. 

Surazal became a PC at this point. He enjoyed a long career as the Circles Sorcerer, but he did loose his life while trying to rescue the lover of a powerful Water Dragon. 

After many battles with Tattoo in which he managed to retreat from, the circle had thier way with him and thus ended his life. The Circle believed him to be a Wyld touched Barbarian that was also enhanced by Magic.
