Publisher's Summary[]
It is said that an egg exists deep within the hearts of a single person. This egg, raised while storing someone with no ostensible appearance, is always waiting, day after day, for the moment that someone is born from within its shell. When that shell breaks, that possibility might even stave off myself, Boogiepop, and crush the world. ......And so, the destiny revealed by this egg will, at this point, bring about a single confrontation between one who is already the strongest of his kind, and another who, following this, will shatter their shell. However, the countdown to this fate will steadily tick away until the moment these two meet. It seems like many will be entangled within this approaching, unavoidable clash for the sake of the "strongest one" and "lightning," two individuals that seek their own single way of life. -- Now marks the beginning of the first act to this life or death struggle between those manipulated by unseen thread, all wrapped in the enigma of the Embryo.[1]
