The Internal Divine Kingdom was a primitive world without order, ruled only by instinct and conflict.
Any being without a strong enough mind would be overwhelmed by its vast torrent of chaotic information the moment they entered, becoming part of the Chaos.

He was no visitor. He was the master of this world.
He did not try to suppress the chaos by force. That would have been like a mantis trying to stop a cart.
He began to analyze it.
To analyze the chaos itself.
The insights from the Forging Godhead he had stripped away now flowed through his mind.
