It's year 2514. The world isn't futuristic in the way people had thought it'd be. It had been wars. Multiple. Parts of cities were in ruins, and many had died in the war. The last war you experienced was four years ago. You were eleven. Felix was three, and Jeongin was just a baby. Both of your parents died in that war. You were forced to look after your brothers on your own.
The city that you live in has two sides. Rich and poor. You and your brothers live on the poorest side of town, one of the families living furthest from the rich side. Luckily you had your older friend, Chan, who you found a few months after the war. He's two years older, and has now taken on the roll of your caregiver.
You and Chan always has to steal things to scrape up enough to money to buy things. Mostly it's Chan doing the work, but you sometimes contribute. Both Jeongin and Felix are small and fragile boys. Because they get just enough food to be seen as healthy.
Currently, Chan is out food hunting while you're alone with your brothers.
