In the sterile, high-security halls of Clover Ward Media Tech HQ, "e;talent"e; is a commodity, and freedom is a long-forgotten dream. For Purin Fujioka, life has become a routine of state-sanctioned forgery and "e;work limbo,"e; where the only escape is the four walls of an apartment that feels more like a well-camouflaged prison cell.When a pheasant infestation forces the section talents out of their usual work units, Purin finds herself hosting an unlikely gathering of her peers...the enigmatic and manipulative Nushiru, the chaotic and unpredictable Anna, and the hauntingly detached Ginko. What begins as a routine social visit quickly unravels into a series of psychological games and a cold confrontation with the families they were sold away from.
