Because a world at war to leave the dead, is the question that everyone on earth and in LAZ, asked themselves, because a world of death and battle.
When one thinks of paradise, one usually remembers a white world of marble and gold, where peace reigns, where clouds are the cobblestone of the sidewalk, where you always feel protected and where nothing bad ever happens, where you meet your relatives and live carefree.
So why war?
Still in my thoughts, I nodded toward Gwen.
She smiled.
- You are wondering why a world at war, as they all do, but Mr. Hel, that is a very closed minded thought, as they say in the east, like a frog in a well, I would like to ask you, were you ever instructed to go to war and kill someone? - In that instant, my eyes opened like plates, no, no one ever asked me to kill, in fact, I always had the opportunity to avoid it, I could have taken the path of a vegetarian and I would not even have to kill animals...
- By your silence, I judge that you have realized, this world does not force you to go to war, it has never imposed anything on you, but then how did we end up like this? the answer is simple, this kingdom only gives you one thing, it gives you the ability to fulfill all your ambitions, it gives you the possibility to reach all your desires, it gives you people who serve you, it gives you the ability to transcend your limitations given by the human body, it rewards you for fulfilling your dreams, now you understand, it is not the world that forces you to war, it is the ambitions of humans that create them - My mind was opening, it was true, I could have decided to forget the abyss and never follow that route, but my death, my fragility, the desire for power, it was all my choice, I chose this path.
- Mr. Hel, one of my aunts specialized in psychology and she used to tell me that my fondness for war games and conquest came from my blood, from my being born with ambition. She told me that humans were born as territorial animals, which seek to fulfill their desires at all costs, some want power, others wealth, some love, but most always want more, she loved the ancient times, all the years before the formation of the UN and before the world was stabilized, she believed that this was a mistake, because society was forming chains, chains that bound men without them knowing it, containing their ambitions, of course peace is fine, but humanity is like a kettle with boiling water inside, if it doesn't have something to fight against, where it can break free, then it would eventually explode and that would be the real end of the world, because the more you contain something, the worse it becomes in the long run.
Nowadays, many young people lock themselves in their worlds, looking for escape routes, drugs, street fights, this is because they are being contained, they can't release their most primitive desires, we have to remember that we are animals above all, not superior beings, that is the reason for LAZ, a world without limitations, without chains, a world where you fight to achieve your desires, where you strive to achieve them and where you fight to protect them, a world where a society does not force you to accept good as good and evil as evil, it's a free world, a world where anyone can become king, rich or beautiful, where anyone can release all their desires and where anyone can transcend, that's heaven, that's Lazarus' smile - I was perplexed, if someone were to listen to her on earth, they would think she was a pro-war, someone evil who seeks conflict, to overthrow the authorities, someone who only seeks to stir up trouble, but if you looked at it from her side, now seeing this world, maybe she wasn't wrong.
LAZ, has shown that who does not want war, can achieve that ito, an example are those who became Fairies, having a quiet life, where they only think about having fun and playing or the Dryads and Ents, who only seek tranquility.
Such is the world in which I now live.
- Now you have a lot to think about sir, I recommend you to rest, in the following days it will be difficult to do it - While she was leaving I could not think of anything but our conversation, who would have thought it, such a young girl had given me a great review in terms of philosophy and understanding of humanity, I had to pull myself together and try to square the dots on the i's.
