The Absolute Gifted Student (TAGS) Academy—a name whispered in reverence among scholars, yet shrouded in unsettling silence by those who truly know its past. While the world celebrates its latest prodigies, none dare speak of The Four Savants, the academy’s most brilliant—and most cursed—alumni.Officially, they vanished. Unofficially? Something far darker took them.Graduates today dazzle with genius, yet none match the Savants’ unnatural prowess. Records from the era describe minds that defied human limits—solving unsolvable equations, predicting events decades ahead, even rumors of… altering reality itself. Then, abruptly, they disappeared. No traces. No explanations. Only fragmented notes, locked away in TAGS’ deepest archives, hint at what transpired.

THE COUNCIL OF TEMPUS PROTEGO AGENT
SYPNOSIS OF FACTS:
Erik Kierkegaard is a field agent for the Council of Tempus Protego, a secretive organization dedicated to the preservation of temporal integrity. Born on December 31 in Birmingham, England, Erik was abandoned as an infant and raised in a Catholic orphanage. A solitary and introspective child, he spent much of his time reading — favoring works like Spacetime Physics by Edwin F. Taylor, The Forever War by Joe Haldeman, and The Martian Chronicles by Ray Bradbury — or engaging in quiet activities such as gardening and fishing with the orphanage staff. His predictable routine, including weekly library visits every Friday at 4 PM, earned him a reputation as a boy of peculiar but disciplined habits.At age 12, Erik was adopted by a mysterious benefactor known only as "MOONSHINE", a wealthy and enigmatic figure who concealed his true identity. Though initially reluctant, Erik adjusted to his new life, forming bonds with the household staff and gradually becoming more sociable. Recognizing Erik’s intellect, MOONSHINE enrolled him in The Absolute Gifted Students (TAGS), an elite academy for prodigies. Despite initial doubts, Erik graduated — though not among the legendary Four Savants, he proved himself capable.Following his education, MOONSHINE recruited him into the Council of Tempus Protego, where rigorous training honed him into a skilled field agent. His consistent success in missions earned him MOONSHINE’s favor, culminating in an unusual reward: a wolf companion named Dee Dee, who became both a loyal partner and a symbol of his achievements. Now, Erik operates as a key operative, balancing his analytical brilliance with a newfound sense of purpose — far removed from the quiet orphan who once sought refuge in books and solitude.
