Outside the school, chaos reigns. Inside, calmness is eaten away by terror, hunger, rage.
This is a strange story, not set any country, any world. To the children in this tale, it doesn't matter what nation they belong to. In the peaceful age of prosperity and plenty, they run wild in a boarding school...until the famine. Locked inside the school, the system that keeps everyone in place is ripped apart by hunger, desperation, and simple madness. A band of little ones are bound together by friendship and loyalty, but how long can they survive?

Inspired by random dreams and my own experiences in a Chinese boarding school. When I was there I used to draw comics of imaginary school-wide war, involving my friends and teachers. Now I have a chance to write it.
