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...

A Maddened Abomination

As Bastion gazed before him, he laid eyes upon a strange entity that could only be described as neither human nor animal. The entity before his eyes possessed an abnormal body, with two unusual growths sprouting from the area between its massive shoulder blades.

It was hunching over a desk, seemingly scribbling away at some unknown papyrus. However, throughout this scribbling, one could hear maddened grunts and disgruntled rambling echo throughout the room.

These grunts weren't loud, yet they borrowed upon some strange energy to become far more clear and distinct, almost resembling a conversation between two humans. 

Aside from the noise and the abnormal growths, Kieran and Bastion both noticed a few more unusual things.

This strange entity before them also wore a tattered lab coat stretched to its limits, which already had many tears in the admittedly stretchy fabric.
