It's been so long. This was a writing exercise, and I posted all the chapters I had saved at once. I didn't revise it and never planned to put it behind a paywall. I also had to rush the ending due to health issues, so some foreshadowing went unresolved. I originally hoped it would help you pass the time, but I locked it because I was afraid it would become an embarrassing old work. To my former readers, especially those who sent me nutrient solutions, I want to say sincerely: I'm sorry.
Theme: Even when the world is absurd and everyone around you has gone mad, clear-mindedness and kindness remain the greatest strengths.
