Zenith Online: Rebirth of the Strongest Player

Death is sometimes not the end, and the zenith is empty. Legends rise and fall. Myths are born. Faced with death after a dismal fall from grace where glory, renown, and prominence were once found, Kieran's second chance is fueled by vengeance. It burns like a ruinous flame and drives Kieran's quest for power within and without. Though not an ingrate, he remains curious about why he returned to the past instead of dying. He has nothing but questions, but his death puts the beginning of his story into perspective, showing him that Zenith Online... is the beginning of the end — the end of the current Age. The zenith is empty and calls for someone to claim its throne, but to answer that call means to bear the consequences. Everything — especially choice — has a cost. Challenges lay in wait. The road to supremacy is wound in suffering, and to know the truth is to know madness. And so, the Maddened awakens...

Underground Labyrinth

----

After the unusual ordeal between Luna and Kieran, the party's atmosphere became quite strained, but not for the reasons one may think. Rather than resenting Kieran, Luna felt ashamed of herself since she had shown an unsightly weakness to others. However, the touch of a man had triggered some repressed resentments that she tried to sever from herself.

Sadly, one couldn't sever themselves from their subconscious, at least not at this level. That was a practice of mental prowess not exhibited by humans. Even in Kieran's past, he found it difficult to separate himself from subconscious actions. Naturally, this meant he was never in complete control of himself. 

Complete control also included control of the subconscious, as that was just another part of an individual that truly defined them. Certain stimuli could trigger the subconscious in the most severe of situations, leading to the emergence of an individual's most primal form.
