The Russian Empire was revived and became one of the strongest states in the solar system. It would seem that prosperity has been achieved, but a crisis is brewing in society, and the international situation is slowly but surely sliding towards a large-scale war. The empire's intelligence services are looking for the person responsible for the explosion of the teleport, which almost killed the sovereign. The European Alliance is putting forward an ultimatum, dreaming, under the guise of democratic slogans, to tear away a piece of territory with rich resources from Russia. The feeling of an impending catastrophe forces the main “gendarme” of the empire, the powerful head of the III department, to mobilize all the patriotic forces of the huge country to resist external and internal aggression.
