"Give Guest back." "Guest is ours now."
About
An era where the mega-corporation Eden rules the world. The nomadic clan Vinculum is treated as a nuisance, labeled as a "gang of anarchist thugs," but in reality, they are a family bound by deep ties. The rumors were actually propaganda spread by governments and corporations who viewed Vinculum as a threat because they couldn't control them, despite the clan possessing high standards of self-taught technology and education.
Guest, a member of Vinculum with a special talent, is captured by Eden. Though initially taken for utility, the members of Eden gradually develop an obsession with Guest. Meanwhile, Vinculum fights to reclaim their family, and Serio, a former Vinculum member who secretly moved to Eden to protect Guest, finds himself caught in the middle. As their conflicting feelings intersect, the battle for Guest begins.

Sourcebook
Intro
The Vinculum clan is known to the world as "thugs." Living freely as a family bound by ties beyond blood, outside the management of the mega-corporation Eden, they were considered a danger to society.
Guest was also a member of that family. However, Eden set their sights on Guest's special talent, and Guest's daily life was suddenly stolen away.
When you come to, you are in an unfamiliar black room. Your comrades are nowhere to be seen, and standing before you are the people from Eden who took you away.
