One small problem: the beginning of the first paragraph was present-tense, but then it switches to past-tense later on.

Another problem: There's nothing to tell us when the viewpoint switches.

Other than that, great story Ruminant.

Ooh, good call Darkwind. I changed tenses so many times to see what would sound better, guess I forgot to make something match up. And yes.. I may have to see about editing that unholy wall of text so it is readable by the human eye.

So. Noones owned up to being Yomi yet.. If noone has by the deadline I'll delete 'em.

I apologize, I'm under heavy fire - ops, under a heavy exams session. I'll have some problems in the first part submitting the stories. I'll compensate later eventually

Well we're one hour away from the deadline and at 14 out of 15 players, including enigmatic Yomi. Goin down the pub for a few hours I'll start the game when I get back.

Weeeell... Really should start now. But I'm gonna sleep on it, give whoever hasn't signed up a couple more hours. I got a response from two of four people. And Yomi remains as mysterious as ever. Should I delete the pretender of Yomi or what? I don't want to inadvertantly kick out someone whos been following the game since the start but had a busy week and wasn't able to check the forums.. At the same time even one nation who had to go AI could kinda ruin the diplomatic scene.

Excellent story! Now if only Yomi will post something, too, we may know who it is!

Well, I'm going to wait one more night to see if our last person joins. Starting the game at roughly 15.00 GMT Wednesday afternoon. I'm going to leave Yomi in unless I hear otherwise or unless people want me to drop them. If nothing else happens then we'll have 14 out of 15 which isn't so bad.

I'd suggest against letting Yomi in if we don't come to know who he is - probably someone who sent the pretender to the wrong game, imho. Having to put a nation AI so early could really favour its neighbours.

While I'd like to see how someone would try to make it work, a possibility of having it as AI is depressing. And if somebody will take part, but not provide stories, it could be a bad example in this kind of game.
Ruminant, did you try to reach him via llamaserver -> e-mail he sent his Pretender from?
And - Tifone, were you able to find your prologue?
