The Frenzy is continuing to search the world, everything living it encounters being absorbed into its maddening golden flame.
The Frenzy comes across Lazarus, wandering the world.
The Frenzy would look like a normal mortal, if it weren't for the fact that their head is just a ball of golden flames, crackling with the voices of those consumed. Upon seeing Lazarus they begin to approach, making trudging steps.
Lazarus turns towards them. "Hello there. Are you perhaps another traveler?"
Their voice speaks like a chorus of pained and insane screams "Do you seek peace stranger?"

'Nothing is beautiful because it lasts.'
'War does not decide who was right, but only who is left.'
Lazarus turns to face it, looking it over with interest.
"And who perhaps might you be" He inquires.
"Another of this world's many overlapping gods?'
It looks up at where the city was a moment ago. "It appears so... but you were asking for my name, I believe. Azabrose. I am, or at least, was, an angel for the City of New Babylon. What is your name, friend?"
"You can refer to me as Lazarus. I am not from here, you could say."
"Ah. I am not either. Where did you come from?"
"Another world. I could share a simplified version of my story with you if you would listen."
"I would. I don't suppose I have any tasks to complete, so you can take as long as you wish."

"Let me tell you a tale of a cruel world."
"I will keep it short. In my old world, I was created by the gods as a mere weapon. I refused to allow myself to be used though. For my disobedience, they sent their wrath upon me. I did not go quietly, butchering them one by one, gaining more power until I faced off against their ruler. AT the end of my unholy war I chose to end my mad man's rampage. I took up pacifism. I then left my world in order to see others. Ones with a less cruel fate."
Korzirak is within the Kingdom of Concordia, patrolling the lands and overseeing the settlement and mining projects on the other floating islands.
Zeon is traversing the area, currently near the swamplands.
Rendy continues to make friends, beginning to consider who it will choose as his best friend.
Leonardo continues his travels, black roses continuing to grow wherever he has been.
Lazarus materialises on the border of Cocordia in a plume of flame.
Lazarus sees a massive central floating Island surrounded by many other floating islands of various elemental makeup and slowly orbit around this central island that is bathed half in soft radiant light and half in total darkness.. The light half, the Radiant Fortress of Splendor, is a massive fortified city of elegant yet practical design with various fortifications. Various mortals, celestials, dragons, and construct walk the streets and fly above, living and working together. The surrounding lands of Splendor are beautiful and verdant golden fields and farmlands. The center of the Kingdom is a twilight forest surrounding a massive dragon graveyard with a massive black mausoleum-like temple in the middle of it all. The dark half, the Hallowed Meadows of Tenebrous, is dark yet beautiful and peaceful with rolling fields and meadows with various cozy settlements and villages with a ghostly river snaking it's way throughout the land that starts at the Wellspring of Souls, a massive lake of spirit water that collects the souls of those that can't move on so they can be reincarnated.

Sprouting wings of purple flame, Lazarus launches himself up into the city. He lands amongst the fortified city's streets.

"I appreciate your desire for peace. I can tell that you have much destructive power, and it would likely be very imprecise to unleash much of it at once."

The city of Splendor is a bustling place, with the citizen going about their daily lives. Metallic Dragons walk among the mortals, keeping watch and aiding them with guidance and conversation. Celestials train and keep watch, acting as a protective force for the Kingdom. Constructs of various shapes and sizes work and live alongside the mortals as well. The tallest building in the City is a massive temple that acts as part castle and part forge.
Lazarus turns to face them. "I am not here to cause problems. Do you claim control and ownership over time?"
"yes. I am not the first, but all before me have faded. I do not bar you from manipulating it, but if you warp it against my will, you shall be eliminated"
"You can trust that I am here seeking to do no harm."
"very good. I am tempor, you are Lazarus. please tell me your name."

"How kind of you. Do you have a license for your- oh." It realizes something and seems disappointed.

"Peace? Yes." He looks at them more curiously. "Why do you ask?"
"Close your eyes, and be consumed by the flames." They reach out a hand, flames beginning to move towards them, not even leaving ash behind.

"That sounds of submission, not peace. Of madness, not consultation."
Sprouting wings of purple flame, Lazarus launches himself up into the city. He lands amongst the fortified city's streets.
"You confuse the two, for they are one in the same. For peace you must submit to something, you shall gain the peace you seek."
