[edit] Plot
The plot takes place in a fictional universe where not only humans are sapient, but also furries and a species referred to as animen. Also as the plot moves along, many forms of technology gain 'self-awareness'. In that universe, humans used to be the dominant species, having furries as their pets (or slaves). However, in an economic revolution, furries achieved autonomy and could have their own economically and politically stable country.
The comic runs in that scenario, reconstructing these events and dealing with some of the "loose ends" of that situation. Subjects like prejudice, racism, tolerance, power and forgiveness are dealt with. Later on, animen are introduced as major characters of the plot, bringing further explanation of the plot's past and present.
