The Imperial Academy is the best educational institution in the Russian Empire. Not everyone manages to get here. Many of my peers, scions of noble families, would give a lot to be in my place. But it turned out that studying here is not easy. Concentrating on your studies when attempts on your life follow one another is not an easy task. Meanwhile, a conspiracy is brewing around the Emperor, and you need to determine who is behind the conspirators. And this needs to be done quickly. Because, according to the prophecy, if you don’t unite with someone you consider your enemy, you won’t live to see Christmas... Well, let’s test the enemy’s strength. Anyone who thinks that the target of his assassination attempts is a spoiled aristocrat does not yet know how much he is mistaken.
