## Plot

The first one to be interviewed is the King of Clubs. They state their belief that Jonny killed Dr. Carmilla to gain power, either by throwing her in the airlock, or just using it to dispose of her body.

The second one to be interviewed is the Red Joker. He says that Dr. Carmilla was probably meditating in the airlock when one of the bots opened it. He doesn't have an alibi and is pleased at her death.

The third one to be interviewed is the Jack of Diamonds. It talks instead about Doctor Who, calling him careless and saying a bit of fresh air would do him well.

The fourth one to be interviewed is the Ace of Hearts. She states that there was no malfunction and that she thinks she didn't kill Dr. Carmilla but is happy that she's gone and didn't like her.

The fifth one to be interviewed is the Ace of Clubs. He says that he doesn't want to engage in this topic of conversation, and wants to move past this.

The sixth one to be interviewed is the Queen of Diamonds. She says that there is a 98% chance Dr. Carmilla isn't dead. Jonny interrupts, asking Nastya how fast they can leave. Ashes is suspicious of this, but Jonny says he just doesn't want to be around when Dr. Carmilla comes back and is angry. Ashes concedes that this is a fair point, and Nastya begins to get them away.

**Mez-m Ngueme**, appelé aussi **Francisco Macías Nguema** ou **Masie Nguema Biyogo Ñegue Ndong**, fut le premier président de la Guinée Équatoriale.

En poste de 1968 à 1979, Nguema imposa une violente dictature. Un tiers de sa population décédera ou choisira l'exil.

## Histoire

### Jeunesse

Né de parents venant du Gabon, Nguema était le fils d'un guérisseur, et appartenait au groupe ethnique majoritaire en Guinée Équatoriale, les Fang.

Å 9 ans, Nguema vit son père être battu à mort par un colon espagnol après avoir essayé de négocier de meilleurs salaires pour ses hommes. Une semaine plus tard, Nguema aurait également perdu sa mère après qu'elle se soit suicidée, les laissant lui et ses dix frères et sœurs se débrouiller tout seuls.

### Carrière politique

Nguema échoua à l'examen du service civil par trois fois. Cependant, il réussit à obtenir le poste de maire de la ville de Mongomo, et plus tard celui de membre du parlement territorial. En 1964, il devint vice-Premier Ministre dans la transition gouvernementale. Il se présenta pour devenir président du pays bientôt indépendant. Le 12 octobre 1968, il gagna contre son concurrent, Ondó Edu. Ce dernier ce serait brièvement exilé au Gabon avant de suicider le 5 mars 1969. C'est cependant la version officielle, officieusement il aurait été exécuté.

## Gouvernement

Le 7 mai 1971, Nguema abrogea certaines parties de la Constitution de 1968 et publie un décret, ce qui lui permet d'avoir tous les pouvoirs du Gouvernement et des Institutions, ce qui inclut ceux autrefois détenus par les branches législatives et judiciaires, ainsi que par le cabinet des ministres.

Selon les chiffres officiels, 99% des votants approuvèrent le document. Trois mois plus tard, une nouvelle "élection présidentielle" confirma que Nguema était désormais président jusqu'à la fin de ses jours.

In 905, the Kingdom of Rekota set off an ambition of colonization in order to restore wealth and power to the monarchy. However after 4 years of colonizing the southern continent, the new settlements came into conflicts with the native people who werent much different in strength and therefor kept the colonies an expensive endeavor for the Rekotan monarchy.

By the year 909 the entirety of the Rekotan presence had left the settlements to their own control, this left Rekota in a dire economical situation, which was exploited by the Queen of Eonus, a neighboring state to Rekota, whom sought the unification of the two kingdoms into a greater state. The Rekotan king had no choice but to submit to the negotiations due to his people being up in arms over the failures of his government. On the new years day of 1.1.910 the negotiations were complete and the United Kingdom of Aurillia was presented to the international community. The agreement was that the Eonic monarchy would bail out all the debt of the Rekotans, in exchange for accepting the Eonic queen as their monarch, and submit to Eonic rule and law.

## Economy

This hull has a great multipurpose usage and can easily be converted. In 1005 the Carolic government ordered 4 more ships of this class however those will be fitted with Anti-Air Warfare(AAW) due to the threat of the Ascari and Aurillian naval air forces.

* A city should be in a spot where it can easily access the rest of the world
* A city should be in a flat, open area, for ease of construction

## Resources

After creating your city, and when it reaches 20.000 inhabitants, you are allowed to properly become a country, and when you reach country hood, you need to apply to the resource rules, where you need to gather and exploit the different resources to expand and grow your nation.

Narcissus

Narcissus is a nymph working in Dionysus' employ.

## Description

Narcissus is extremely handsome, with 'artfully arranged features'. He has blonde hair and a straight nose. His hairstyle changes; when Orpheus first met him, he had an undercut and curly hair, but during the events of the fiction he wears it straight and slicked back in order to cover the back of his neck.

## History

Not much is known about his history before he meets Orpheus, nine years before the events of the album. At the time, they are both nymphs in Dionysus' employ. They strike up a fast friendship and become very close. Two years later, a girl in love with Narcissus, Echo, breaks up with him, breaking his mirror in the process. This causes Narcissus to become incredibly superstitious and paranoid. This isn't helped by the fact that five years after that, he is kidnapped by a group of people attempting to kill him and turn his body into a Somnambulist (a non-sentient dead body whose brain is replaced by code to transform it into a servant). Due to his mental illness, his brain would introduce bugs into the Acheron, and so after the events of Orpheus and Narcissus go to the Seaside, he is taken away to Medea Asylum, a hellish 'mental institute' where he will be kept alive in perpetuity.

## Trivia

* Narcissus has had plastic surgery to make himself double-jointed.
* He has an odd affinity for velvet.

Since 973, Özgürka has been administrated as a parliamentary republic, with a multi party democratic system, where anyone can get involved in politics, regardless of age and gender.

## Economy

The Özgürkan economy has never been any major player on the international market, as the country was very remote and sparsely populated, however with the newly opened Ejderha Canal, built in 1007, the economy is expected to grow greatly due to the overwhelming need for a passage between the Eonic and Saphic seas.

## Geography

Özgürka is a warm and dry country, vastly dominated by deserts and savannas to the east and in its core, however the further east you get, the wetter and colder it gets, with the country's eastern most border being located at the Ishkan Ranges.

## Military

The Özgürkan Republican Army (ORA) is a small defensive armed branch of the government, that is tasked with securing the long sparsely populated border regions, and the policing and patrolling of its territorial waters. The ORA once was a mighty force with over 150.000 enlisted men, but after the Black Revolution, the armed forces was greatly reduced as the country moved towards an isolationist and pacifistic ideology.
Emma-class battleship

Template:Infobox ship classThe Emma-class was the last pair of battleships ever built by the Royal Nasconyan Navy, they were commissioned in the mid 950s and stayed in service up until the late 980s. These ships were the state of the art design back then, and presented the largest display of armament ever put to seas. These ships were selected to be refitted by the CNR Battleships program in the first decade of the 2nd millenium.
Sherna-class Destroyer

Template:Infobox ship classThe **Sherna-class Destroyers** are a class of destroyer in the Ascaris Navy. Designed to supplement the older Gatla- and Atlan-classes in the area of antisubmarine warfare, 4 were completed in the mid 980's.

The ships were plagued with design problems, and are widely considered a failure in Ascaris, due to their relative ineffectiveness in the role they were designed for. They were removed from service over the 2 year span of 1013-1014.

Commonwealth Armed Forces

Template:Infobox military branchFeachdan Armaichte Corporra, the Commonwealth Armed Forces, are the military forces of the Tsincassia Commonwealth.

Chi-Kaitac

Chi Kaitac(*New Kaitac or just sometimes just Kaitac*) is the newly built capital city of the Republic of the Nami. It was built ontop of the old capital city, Kaitac, which was left in ruins after the Namese Revolution.

Kaitac is today home to 300.000 inhabitants, and is growing rapidly with influx of migrants from the countryside, as Namarai is experiencing one of the highest rate of urbanizations in the world.

## History

Chi-Kaitac is located at the source of the Arai river, by the two historical waterfalls that flowed together to form the river. This fact has always made the area a very valuable spot for civilization, as the river is just big enough for shipping to reach, and the river is still fast flowing to keep mills running, fueling the citys ancient economy.

The original inhabitants of the area originally settled on the riverside 5000 years ago, and the town quickly grew into a major trading post for the region
Koskinen

Koskinen is a federal republic located on the southern central part of Autemia. Koskinen is a heavily forested, and sparsely populated country. As of 10 AP, The Republic of Koskinen is a protectorate of the Antarrian Empire.

## History

In 5 AP, Koskinen was invaded by the United Kingdoms of Antarria, this war lasted a month, and resulted in heavy casualties on the Koskinean side. In an effort to gain public approval, Antarria started a housing and industrialization campaign in the country, this had mixed results. The occupation ended in 6 AP after the Visran-Antarrian Punitive War where Antarria was forced to leave their occupied territories.

After the occupation, came the Year of Anarchy, in which several militant groups took control over different parts of the country, and worked together in peace. This peace ended in late 7 AP when Antarria again visited Koskinen, but this time with medical supplies, the arrival of a hospital ship in the city of Paelin, was met by an attack from the left leaning group, the UKLF. This sparked an international incident, as in the peace treaty, the neighboring countries of Shinrin and Wahi'awa was tasked with security and policing in the country. Antarria sent a destroyer loaded with peacekeeping units to the city of Paelin to bring order to the city.

### The Second Invasion

The Antarrian troops attempted a landing in the city of Paelin, but was attacked by UKLF militias in the city. This resulted in the Antarrian troops retreating, and then announcing they would bombard the city in 24 hours unless the UKLF would surrender control. The ultimatum was ignored, and Antarria started bombing the city, this resulted in up to 18.000 civilian deaths, with another 30.000 refugees. Visranian troops would help occupy other settlements in the invasion.

Koskinen never capitulated, but was fully occupied by 13/27/10AP
Type 1500 aircraft carrier

The Type 1500 aircraft carrier is a class of aircraft carriers currently under construction for the Republican Naval Guard. These ships will be equipped with two steam catapults, an angled flight deck, and two on deck aircraft lifts. In 14 AP, the first ship of the type 1400 aircraft carrier class had been halted and put into storage, as the Naharis shipyard was repurposed to produce lighter vessels. Therefor the job to produce Namarai's next generation of aircraft carriers went to the Gojuni shipyard, however their dock sizes were limited, and therefor could not produce or finish the type 1400 carrier design. Therefor a new design was proposed, which featured a shorter and slimmer hull.
LCA-2

Template:Power PlantLCA-2 Is a nuclear Power Plant located approximately 5 miles east of the outskirts of Casio in upper Tsincassia. It is the Tsincassia Commonwealth's second large scale nuclear facility incorporating VVER reactor technology. Construction began in late 1010, the plant is due to be commissioned in late 1012.
Ariadne

Ariadne Minos was one of the Suits in Ulysses Dies at Dawn. She was played by Raphaella la Cognizi.

## Description

Ariadne is described as 5'9", 161lbs, with grey eyes and greying hair that has been dyed ash brown.

## History

### Pre-Album

Ariadne was born to the high ranking Minos family, and grew up wealthy. As an adult she ran several businesses as an entrepreneur.

However an expose revealed that the Minotaur - a robotic monster that roamed the lower levels of The City, killing and harvesting the brains of its victims to expand the Acheron - had been built by her parents. The Minos family was disgraced, Ariadne ruined and her businesses bankrupted. Ariadne switched to working as a money launderer for Dionysus to survive.

Deciding to rebuild her and her families reputation, Ariadne publicly denounced her parents and then equipped Theseus with the codes required to deactivate the Minotaur. With the Minotaur destroyed, Ariadne announced how she had helped in its defeat and that she was going to marry Theseus. Theseus on the other hand denied Ariadne had helped, and then abandoned her at the alter on the day of their wedding.

Ariadne keeps up the pretence of being Theseus' jilted lover for PR purposes, however she really hates him. She is approached to take on the Trial by Love, and assumes her act of Theseus' lover will be sufficient.

## Trivia

* Ariadne lives in the district of Crete.

Lancelot Pendragon

Lancelot Pendragon was one of the three Pendragons in High Noon Over Camelot. He was played by Jonny d'Ville.

## Description

Lancelot was a black man with dark shoulder length hair.

## History

### Pre-Album

Lancelot started as a roaming sellgun, often working anonymously under a pseudonym.

On arriving in a town controlled by the Water Lord Gian, Lancelot was accosted by five members of the Wolf Gang. Ignoring them and then dodging their shots when this angered them, Lancelot quickly shot all of the five dead. This impressed Gian, who wanted to recruit Lancelot to improve his fortune in his fight against the Wolf Gang. Gian attempted to hire Lancelot, who introduced himself as the 'Man Mal Fet'.

Gian threw a party to celebrate the death of the Wolf Gang members, which Lancelot attended. However Lancelot was mostly interested in the serving girl Mary. Hearing her story that Gian had forced her into a relationship and had killed her partner Dan to do so, Lancelot used the drunkenness of the party-goers to steal Gian's motorbike and send Mary away to safety in Camelot.

Staying behind, Lancelot was caught and beaten on Gian's orders before being left in the desert to be killed by either the scorpions or the Saxons. Lancelot had impressed the townsfolk who disliked Gian though, and they secretly rescued him, hiding him and helping him to recuperate.

Gian attempted to check on Lancelot's body and finding it missing assumed the Wolf Gang had rescued him. Gian then burned down all of the known Wolf Gang housing. When he then became suspicious of the barkeep supplying Lancelot with food, he also killed the barkeep. In return Lancelot climbed up the pylon the town was built around, using smoke and mirrors to taunt Gian's men and sniping them off.

Lancelot continued to roam Fort Galfridian as a sellgun, coming up against Arthur Pendragon and Guinevere Pendragon and almost killing them. He instead entered into a relationship with the two . When Arthur proposed to take over Camelot by killing Sherriff Lavinia Stone and the rest of the Stone Clan, Lancelot supported him and travelled to Camelot with him and Guinevere.

Antarrian Civil War

The Antarrian Civil War was a civil conflict that lasted for 9 days, and resulted in the independence of the Sweserreich.

Template:Infobox Conflict

## Operation Sting

During the first days of the conflict, nothing happened aside from little skirmishes. On the 5th of October, though, the Antarrian forces started their first offensive operation, and swiftly took control over the rebel capital of Frederiksburg.

First, the Antarrians established full air-superiority, but this had not been enough, as the rebels took cover in the civilian buildings in the city, which forced Antarrian infantry to advance in the city. The unsuspecting rebels had not placen any forces on their flanks, and this had proven to be disastrous for them; the Antarrian tank & mechanized forces quickly rushed along the Sweserian flanks, and easily surrounded the city. On the west flank, the Special Intervention Unit, equipped with helicopters, landed in Silberburg, securing the west flank too. Now that the city was surrounded, the guerrillas decided they had nothing to lose, and fought over every single building in the city, laying booby traps along their routes of retreat. They ended up being besieged in the Royal Palace, which they set on fire when they realized they were completely surrounded and couldn't do anything.

This was the first major victory for the Antarrians, and resulted in an even lower moral under the Sweserian troops.

## Operation Albion

After the capture of Frederiksburg, the Army High Command saw that they needed to capture another city, and instead of making the long journey over land, a naval invasion was chosen to be the solution. The city of Josefsstadt was their target.

The troops were able to land on the beaches of Josefshafen without much resistance, as the Sweserian High Command decided to use the same strategy that was used to defend Frederiksburg.

Then, the troops were able to link up with the Airborne Forces of Operation Eagle, and they together assaulted the entrenched troops around Josefsstadt. Due to low moral under the Sweserian forces, a lot of the troops deserted and ran away from the fight, leaving only a handful of troops to defend the city, and these were quickly surrounded on the peninsula.

## Operation Eagle

Operation Eagle (or Operatie Adelaar), was one of the final actions performed during the conflict. This operation consisted of a large airborne force (110. Air Assault Battalion of the 101st Airborne Brigade), that landed north of the town of Freyburg. They quickly defeated all resistance here, and linked up with the naval forces that landed at Josefsstadt.

Thanks to this mission, the Antarrians were able to quickly end the conflict, in mere days even, and it once again showed the power and might of the Antarrian military apparatus, which to this day has been very successful in carrying out offensive operations against enemy forces.
