Virta is the largest Ensemble in Lumi Cluster of UNIVER.SYS. Started as a forest-adjacent village called Luotela in the past, Virta greatly expanded its industrial ventures to different sectors, including information technology, industrial engineering and design, and telecommunications. Although the Ensemble was growing rapidly and opening its borders to the broader world, Virta's Techne remained humble and resilient in their endeavors.

Trivia
- Virta is inspired by Nokia Corporation, and to an extent, Salora Oy, a Finnish electronics manufacturer that formed the joint venture Mobira Oy (later Nokia-Mobira Oy) in 1979, that gave rise to early Nokia mobile phones in the 1980s. The company was later merged with Nokia in 1989.
- The name Virta is taken from Nokianvirta, the river situated in the town of Nokia, Finland, where the eponymous company got its name from.
- In Finnish, virta can also mean stream or electric current.[1]
- Ilmavasara means "air hammer" in Finnish, alluding both to Nokia's "unbreakable" meme reputation, and Finnish smithing god Ilmarinen.[2]
- Virta’s old territory, Luotela, is derived from the place of the same name in the Kalevala.
