MONSTERS ARE REAL

 

Sometimes, the boundaries between good and evil, love

and hate, freedom and captivity are blurred. Sometimes, scars run deeper than flesh. Sometimes, the biggest monsters we face are the ones in our own thoughts.

 

For the BANISHED, it’s rough terrain: become a

madman or go insane. The biggest challenge they face, 

conquer the demons within, not the demons that chase.
