You might just want to revisit the VP conditions. Maybe just changing them right now to say 4 capitals might force a quick end. Or maybe 5 capitals. I think this victory system is broken. Not forting a VP is crazy.

Ah, I've suspected Abysia and Kailasa might be in cahoots
A few turns ago (right after Maerlande took over), Abysia attacked Kailasa and was rebuffed in an epic battle, and since then, they seem to have made nice-nice.
An Abysia/Kailasa axis with the Nexus would be hard to overcome. Just such a possibility (plus I thought everyone else was in on it too) was what pushed me to go the (admittedly awkward) VP land grab route.
I'd be willing to discuss alternate victory conditions. Just as long as they don't blatantly favor any one particular nation (say, a nation with massive access to Astral Pearls, for example).
Remember, I've always got the original VP plan to fall back on - try to hold the VPs I already have for another 18-19 turns or so. Think that's a joke? You just might be surprised. I might just be able to outlast (figuratively or literally) you all, if your hearts are not in it.
But I'd prefer an alternative.
