The Setting

Serenity Springs is an endless suburb of identical houses full of emotionally repressed people in a world devoid of color. The citizens put on a happy face, but life is hard between monster attacks, alien meddling, supernatural censorship, and a totalitarian government that pretends everything is normal.
