Ghosts. To most people, they're nothing more than stories told to frighten children.
But the truth is, they have always been here.
They linger in shrines and churches, temples and mosques, cathedrals, convents, and chapels. Wherever faith gathers, something unseen often follows. They're everywhere.
Most ghosts are harmless, shadows of regret, airs of unfinished goals. They watch. They linger. They do nothing.
Sadly, some do not.
Some can move objects. Some can touch the living. Some can slip into a person's mind or their body and refuse to leave. And there are far more of them than anyone would like to believe.
To protect the living from these restless souls, Exorcists came into existence.
There are three kinds of exorcists. Those who purge spirits through touch. Those who rely on sacred tools. And those who need only their voice.
Ghosts are patient. Persuasive. They know how to sound like hope, like comfort, like truth. They whisper until humans turn against themselves or each other.
That is why the Exorcists formed an organization, to sever the dead from the living, and to free those who no longer realize they are being haunted.
