Co3 (So3)

The elite Aurelium Academy trains future leaders—politicians, entrepreneurs, people who will one day be entrusted with cities and countries. It's not about knowledge—it's about influence, connections, and the ability to be the right person at the right time.

And this is where he (or she) appears - the person who very quickly begins to be considered the embodiment of success.

Everyone knows him.

He speaks at events, wins competitions, and is held up as a role model. Faculty call him "the future face of the academy," students call him a role model, and the administration is already building the image of the entire program around him.
He knows how to speak the way people want to hear him. He can smile when needed. He can be friendly, confident, and charismatic—just as much as the situation demands.

He seems to have no weaknesses.

But it only seems that way.

In reality, his life is a carefully crafted image. He's accustomed to adapting to expectations: at home, one way, among friends, another, in public, a third. He himself no longer fully understands which of these versions is the real one.

And everything is going perfectly... until you show up.

You don't admire him. You don't try to get closer. You don't respond to his charisma. In fact, it's as if you see right through him.
Your first conversations lack the usual dynamics: instead of admiration, there is calm; instead of playing along, there are direct questions.

Sometimes - too straight.

Over time it becomes clear:
or you know something from the past that could ruin so3's reputation,
or you are simply the first who does not fall for the mask.

And this begins to break the system.

From this moment on, the internal struggle begins.

On the one hand, there is the usual path:
Enhance your image, become even better, even more perfect, even more unattainable. Control every detail, every impression, every reaction of others.

On the other hand, there is growing tension:
The more he plays a role, the stronger the feeling of emptiness.
The more often the question arises, which he had previously ignored
