The tower’s reputation attracted the attention of Gobblin, who invited Varkonia to join the Order of St. Marcus, whos builds and aesthetics are still highly regarded. After this, the rate of construction in the city exploded as Gobblin designed new buildings at a prolific rate. After joining the Order, a town hall was designed by Mickale to replace the initial birch construction and the rails were redirected into a new station directly under the tower. The town hall remains the seat of Varkonia’s government to this day and is at the heart of Varkonian politics.

With a growing population, and with it a growing number of responsibilities to respond to, Mickale decided to lay the groundwork for the Varkonian government. He titled himself the Red Duke of Varkonia, and created a Senate. The Senate was made up of prominent active citizens and served to assist the Duke in governing Varkonia, representing the provinces, which may not engage in independent foreign diplomacy, and to hear and rule on internal disputes, crimes, and punishments. Senators may be added or removed by the Duke or King.
