You think life is hard? Wait until you see the afterlife. Adrian, Monica, Nate, and Olivia are four people that have very little in common, except for the fact that they've awoken in a land of tortured souls and demons with no idea of how they got there. Together, or separately, they must make their way through unforgiving environments, forge bonds, make enemies, and keep themselves sane, just to hold on to hope that they might make it home. But even that's keeping it simple. As powers and concepts beyond their understanding begin to awaken, how will it affect them? And will they still be themselves by the end of this?
