The Living Puppets

What happens when we die? Is it all peaches and cream if you lived a noble life and fire and brimstone otherwise? Nobody alive can be certain, but what is our final destination is nothing like anyone expected? What if what happens next is less like a pleasant dream and more like a nightmare?

A small group of newly deceased find themselves in a mysterious afterlife with nothing but confusion and questions. Soon after, they are greeted by a more experienced spirit who informs them that there is a power struggle against a corrupt and power hungry soul. The group is taken in by the resistance forces who promise to end the evil reign of the man manipulating the living for his own personal gain and they discover that their own deaths may have been a little more than fate.
