▍Story
In a world where some have the power to enter people’s minds, there’s also a danger. The power of controlling memories can be used as a weapon or tool. Mysteries can be erased, minds can be assassinated and destroyed.
However, this power can backfire and eat up one’s heart. To counter it, chains are used to lock and protect each other’s weak and dangerous heart. From one’s growing fear and disdain, they’re consequently called “Pet.”
