What if a cascade of visions all equaled to one thing, you are set on an endless path of despair. How do you manage or what can you do to counteract its process.

Can Miles move above all the chaos and mayhem, to be the great man he was always destined to be. Or will despair have its pound of flesh and send Miles on a destructive path of defiance through dominance.
