It's Somewhere Beneath Us
The house is safe. The hills outside are not. The basement is out of the question. Joel has been trapped in the house for what has felt like an eternity; all hope of escaping lost after the first few years. Without the company of the eight strangers who arrived with him, he would have gone mad long ago. But while living in the decrepit building is taxing, nothing could be worse than the thing downstairs. Everyone is content to just live in the six rooms that they know are safe until Joel learns that there may be something below. Something other than the creature that torments them. The house goes deeper, further down into the darkness. And while travelling through the unknown halls may be dangerous, and the thing downstairs is always following close behind, Joel is determined to find a way out of the nightmare he's found himself in; for his own sake, but more importantly, the sake of the people he loves.

When night no longer reflects the shadows of the worlds hidden, within the blue tinted veil is where the monsters hide, seeing all, but never seen. Within the blue tinted veil, the worlds divide, the secrets hide, and monsters? The monsters thrive. The worlds both have gods and monsters, but look nothing alike, bravery portrayed in unusual ways. The lion being a symbol of bravery, but which is braver? The lion who roars, or the mouse who roars back. The only thing known for certain is that people are going to die.
