Year 2024... Young, 2nd Republic is under pressure of north, south and from within. After the bloody civilwar years between 1982-1984 and with territorial loses like the cherry on top; Vurks feel dent on their national prides. They are engineers, they are guardians of night like owls... Leaving failure to achieve her goals -claiming historic borders- Vurkians had been throwed even further from where they started in 20th century.

Neverthless, those civilwar years gave valuable lessons for Vurks: Trying to defend national pride will not mean anything unless it is supported by honesty and integrity. As soon as general populace saw extremist factions betrayal to Vurkian cause, people understood there is no one (at least yet) to accept Vurk as a nation but only a buffer state. A Vurk might be communist, Vurk might be nationalist, Vurk might be democratic: But Vurk is Vurk. And any Russian, any Georgian government and any other government didn't accept this fact so far. After 2nd Kinigin Peace Treaty, floading Vurk immigrants showed a tangible proof for every Vurk. All Vurks left behind the borders are now forced to speak their own language in their homes and pretend to be Russian or Georgian in their daily lives otherwise.

1982 to 2020, Republic under 1th Director regime saw an authoritarian, in some cases totalitarian practices. Even though state of emergency dropped to 2nd level in 2010, it was just a formality. Conditions in Vurk far from ideal, 4 million souls trapped in the 81.945 kilometer square requires clever and disciplined usage of neutral sources and public management. Vurks understand these and general populace seems to be either irrevelant or glad to see how government crushes dissidents, at least to 2000s.

However, againist all ods, gear of republic still turns. In 2020, 1th Director passes away while sleeping. Thus, young 22 years old Nikishai Strix promoted to be 2nd Director of Republic. Young Director suprisingly qualified for his position but it wasn't the skills he had that brought him to the first title in the state: It was the factionalism and result of back door dealings between The Directorate and The National Assembly of Vurk. Nikishai was close to all factions but always didn't seek to be with one of them. Along with that, officals knew that if they deadlock the system they built, there is a chance to another civil unrest may happen due to difficulty in keeping conditions of citizens humane. Politics had to be smooth, or else...

Promising 2nd Director regime shows reforming outlook and even more pragmatistic governance. At the end of 2023, state of emergency drops to 3rd stage and many Vurks had shown different reactions to current policies of new Director. Some still requests firm and protective hands of state, some requests more democracy and more freedom. Meanwhile Nikishai also have his agenda of own.

As Vurkian story begins, characters start to reveal themselves. Who they are, what they are. The Director, who is the head. The Prime Minister, who is the left hand. The Prime Executor, who is the right hand. The calm Defense Minister and the Chief of Armed Forces. The Manguard Headchief, who is the head of the hidden hand. The Foreign Minister, a fine diplomat for a country which is trying to break isolationism. And in their world, there are motives, different themes and flavours. Each united for one goal but different methods, sometimes smell of intrigue...

Director Nikishai decides to first establish relations with every possible nations to break power balance; both internally and externally. To his luck, there comes the Skalliadians who opened another universe for the Vurk. Teleporting from different universe with the Monolith in the Vurkian universe, Directorate learns they always has been in the Multiverse. Skalliad, who are ahead of at least a hundread year comparing Vurkian universe, Director and his government struggles to take right steps. Managing situation to have control over the Monolith, being sure Skalliad will never talk with Vurk's enemies in any condition and also trying to find a power breaker. To all of these, Director also have to start from somewhere to clean ranks of Vurk to have most efficient governance to fulfil first goals.
