A Shadow feeds on the mind of its prey;
the victim becomes a living corpse.
They're responsible for most of
the incidents on the news, if not
all of them.

Although rare, there are those who
can function during the Dark Hour.
Some may even awaken to a power that
enables them to fight the Shadows.
That's "Persona"--the power you used
the other night.
The Shadows can only be defeated by
Persona-users.
Which means, it's all up to you guys.
