** The Red, the Green, and the Rot are ''not'' friends. But when one of them tries to take over the world in their [[EternalRecurrence never-ending cycle]], the other two must work together to stop them.

Added DiffLines:

* LightIsNotGood: At first, the story looks like a simple conflict between the "good" of the Life-based Red and Green, and the "evil" of the Rot. But as the storyline goes on, we get hints that The Red and The Green both want to conquer the world, just like The Rot does. Since the biosphere as it now exists couldn't survive such an imbalance, the only real difference between the three is that The Rot will destroy the world fastest.
