The year is 2040 and wealthy organizations have become the de-facto governments of the world dictating the public policy of many people’s lives.

One organization stands above the rest, the Zaragoza Consultancy Agency, born out of crises from World War II, no other company has reached their levels of success. 

Resulting in their family becoming the richest in the world, showcasing this obscene wealth each year by offering the all-inclusive Zaragoza New Beginnings Scholarship (ZNBS) to be used from college, until the end of each student’s professional career and a guaranteed job at the ZCA after their studies are completed.

Until a rag-tag group of international scholars form the Zaragoza Resistance Coalition (ZRC) and attempt to unmask the shadowy company from the inside-out…
