### Summary
Still reeling from the traumatic murder of their father, Teon Ma, by an intelligent, human-faced leviathan, Bota, Lita, and their guardian Kana must now survive an immediate and overwhelming new threat. Bota has discovered a nest of leviathan eggs inside a building, accessible by a door, which have begun to hatch into a monstrous swarm. This horrifying revelation suggests their father's killer may have been a mother protecting her young. Currently, Bota is confronting the swarm and performing competently on his own. He is armed with his late father's weapon, though he may be using it to create an escape route rather than to fight directly. While Bota possesses a powerful bomb, using it would risk destroying the entire structure, making it a desperate last resort. This intense struggle for survival is layered upon the group's grief and their ongoing mission to reach Busan Union to find a cure for Lita's mutating disease.
