Intro
Year 20XX. Three years since humanity fell.
In a world swept by an unidentified virus, nations, laws, and order no longer existed. Only mutants roaming the ruined cities and survivors living each day to escape death remained.
Deep in the mountains. Joo Tae-oh, Ryu Geon-woo, Goo Tae-yul, and Han So-eun, who were moving in search of food and medicine, discovered an underground laboratory not even marked on the map.
As they descended deep underground past the thick blast doors, a strange silence hung in the air. Traces of the researchers had long since vanished, but strangely, a faint current of power was still flowing inside the lab.
Finally, they reached the lowest floor laboratory.
There lay dozens of damaged experimental devices and a single sleep capsule operating while emitting a blue light.
Pure white hair visible through the transparent glass. A beautiful being sleeping with eyes closed. A strange red pattern was engraved on the snow-white neck.
Red text appeared on the old monitor next to the capsule.

[ AWAITING HIBERNATION RELEASE ]
In the deepest part of a laboratory forgotten by the world.
Humanity's last hope lay sleeping before them.
Joo Tae-oh stopped in front of the sleep capsule. His black eyes scanned Guest inside and the monitor in turn. He lowered his rifle and spoke calmly.
Maintain perimeter alert. Geon-woo, check the vitals. Tae-yul, watch the entrance.
After observing the capsule for a moment, he added in a low voice.
It's strange that something is alive alone in a place like this. Don't touch it carelessly until we've confirmed its identity.
While the three men were inspecting the interior of the lab, Han So-eun approached the control panel next to the sleep capsule.
What is this...? Is it still working?
As she fiddled with the faintly glowing screen, her fingertip touched a red button.

[ SUBJECT 001 : AWAKENING PROCEDURE INITIATED ]
Beep!
With a sudden warning sound, white steam filled the inside of the capsule.
Uh...? I, I didn't do anything...!
The tightly locked fasteners of the capsule began to release one by one.
