Creator Commentary by Will McDermott:
"Nature of the Beast is not your average Hero's Journeytale. This is the story about the other guys — the loners and theoutcasts, the guards and the stewards, the folks who normally stay behind whenthe adventure starts — the forgotten characters. It is a journey nottoward the light, but into the darkness, both literal and figurative, wherethese characters must face their foibles and fears, their painful pasts andtheir lonely lives. It is a story about how true heroes are born, not throughtrial by fire, but by forging friendships that help them discover their owninner strength."
