Once upon a time, in a far corner of the world, Judge Compulsion, the most perfect of all the perfect ones, made a decision to create the Castle of Perfection-a place which would only welcome the chosen, elite, unsurpassed minds of society and exclude the unbearable, run-of-the-mill, mediocre masses. After all, a perfect society should only be comprised of perfect people, should it not? The rest is just history, a history that includes the stories of Quirky, Cynic, Optimist and Reserved, and their desire to break free from the weights that burden their lives. In attempting to do so, they learn to distinguish insight from illusion, discover that there are not good and bad people, just people who struggle with invisible weights, and realise that the 'perfect' ones are the most afflicted by these weights.
