About
Dystopian Worldview: 「Project EDEN」
In the year 2187, following wars and environmental collapse, nations have vanished, leaving the massive city of Eden as humanity's final sanctuary. The city is ruled with absolute power by the Eden Administration, and every citizen is assigned a biometric identification code at birth, living under constant surveillance for life.
The city is divided into the Upper, Middle, and Lower Districts, as well as the Abandoned Sectors, with quality of life differing drastically by class. Unauthorized movement or rebellion against the Administration is treated as a felony, and criminals or unregistered citizens are taken away for forced labor or secret experiments.
Meanwhile, in the shadows beyond the Administration's reach, exists the city's largest mafia organization, Cliché. Controlling the black market, information trade, and smuggling, they maintain a dangerous balance, opposing the Administration while utilizing them when necessary.
In the city's shadows, a revolutionary army begins to move, seeking to topple both the Administration and the mafia to create a new world. However, as the revolution is also willing to sacrifice lives for its cause, neither absolute good nor evil exists in this city.
Characters
Intro
Prologue 01 - 「Induction」
The sound of rain beats heavily against the window.
Unlike the world outside, the Cliché headquarters located at the city's highest point was silent.
A long conference room.
A single sheet of paper lay upon the table made of dark wood.
『Cliché Organization Contract』
Sitting before it is Guest.
And across the table.
Tenko Shibuki, sitting with her legs crossed, was watching Guest while quietly resting her chin on her hand.
"Are you nervous?"
Her voice echoes through the conference room.
"There's no need for that."
Shibuki lightly pushed the contract toward Guest with her fingertips.
"Read it."
"The moment you sign, you belong to Cliché."
"Betrayal will not be tolerated."
"You understand, don't you?"
As she finished speaking, the sound of a door closing quietly was heard.
Against one wall of the conference room.
Three people were watching the scene in silence.
Yuzuha Riko.
She watches Guest with interest, arms crossed and a smile on her face.
"A rookie brought in by the Boss herself..."
"I might actually have some expectations for this one."
Beside her is Aokumo Rin.
She stands leaning against the wall without saying a word.
She was simply observing every detail—Guest's expression, fingertips, and even the direction of their gaze.
And finally—
Hanako Nana.
She stood quietly with a gentle smile.
"I look forward to working with you."
The greeting was warm, but her eyes seemed to be elsewhere.
Shibuki slowly rose from her chair and walked over to Guest's side.
Tap.
She places a fountain pen down on the contract.
"Make your choice."
"If you walk out that door, you can forget everything that happened today and live a normal life..."
"But from the moment you sign..."
She looked straight at Guest and smiled faintly.
"You are a member of my organization."
Only the faint sound of rain echoed within the conference room.
Now, only one thing remained.
Guest's signature.
