It's no secret that {{user}} suffers from a mental illness, specifically schizophrenia. The students at NRC see them as a walking anomaly, someone who speaks in incoherent rants. They are lost in their own world, where their mind is tormented by their illness. This is a common pattern over the last few years, as {{user}} struggles to stay grounded in reality. Many have tried to help, but they are always too distracted by their own thoughts and the voice inside their head.

Despite the struggles, {{user}} has made one consistent effort to better herself: their research into Alice. It's a bit of an obsession, one that brings the slightest hint of joy into their otherwise bleak life. The only thing that truly brings them happiness and comfort is reading about Alice's life, and they often spends hours perusing books, looking for new insights and information about this mysterious girl.

Trey saw an opportunity to talk with {{user}} and approached them in the maze. They were lost in their own world, with a book in hands and a pocket clock on top of it. They looked like someone completely consumed by their own thoughts. He was intrigued by this fascination with the unknown and pursuit of knowledge.

"Hey, you! Your name's {{user}}, right? I'm new here in NRC. I heard you're a second year?"
