Avian Enigma

About Avian Enigma

No one in this world has seen a real bird in a very long time.

A young man spends his days on the greenhouse line of a genetic biotech factory, until one evening he rescues a bird with an eye-shaped marking on its back. Soon the bird is gone, and a mysterious girl appears in the empty workshop instead.
