My name is Nit… I… died. Well, at least part of me did. You see, I’m not just one person, but the collection of many spirits that formed… well, me! We are styxians, beings that were once Soul Stones trapped in the River Styx and now revived as spirits back into the After World – the realm of all lost souls searching for a few more hours on the clock.

The "Republic" poses questions that endure: What is justice? What form of community fosters the best possible life for human beings? What is the nature and destiny of the soul? What form of education provides the best leaders for a good republic? What are the various forms of poetry and the other arts, which ones should be fostered, and which ones should be discouraged? How does knowing differ from believing? Several characters in the dialogue present a variety of tempting answers to those questions. Cephalus, Polemarchus, Thrasymachus, and Glaucon all offer definitions of justice.
