After his rejection and death, the Fabricants began to roam the world, seeking out people with extraordinary body parts, such as telescopic kinetic vision, to kill and harvest for their own. The sole survivor, 14-year-old Ashibi Yao, lived by making a pact with one of his family's killers, Fabricant No. 100, offering his body to her only after all other Fabricants have been killed.
