They say that people who have either come close to death or are at it's door can see things. Ghosts, movements in the shadows, flickers of light, and some things that just can't be explained.... They say that the insane sometimes claim that there are things after them or things protecting them.... They say a lot of things, but what most of them don't know is that it isn't just a figment of those peoples imaginations. There is something there just out of sight; that movement in the corner of your eye and that shiver up your spine. That feeling like someone's watching you...
People are raised up being told there is nothing in the closet, that there's no such thing as faeries or spirits. Not everyone, but enough to have closed the eyes of the majority of the population.There was a wall formed without it even being known about and the creatures and beings that are now considered myths became invisible, intangible. Reduced to becoming imaginary friends or just creeping into people's dreams if they ever want to make some sort of contact or attempt to break down the wall once more. Some wish to help while others wish only to harm. Either way, they're out and they're looking for a way through.
The connection wasn't completely lost... Gradually, humans have been making more contact. Opening their eyes. Though the majority can only make contact due to being young enough not to have become blind to them, a step into death's doorway or via unstable mind, there are a rare few that were just born compatible or that are actually a product of both worlds. They are the cracks in the wall, the gaps that what have been deemed supernatural are beginning to escape through a little at a time. These people are called "Conductors" by the Unseen and when there are enough Conductors gathered in an area, the Unseen get firmer footing in what Humans consider the "real world". Richfield happens to be becoming one of these places... Potentially even the wall breaker.
