Synopsis

The chapter opens with Dionysus, a powerful god, communicating with the group directly, bypassing intermediaries. His presence causes Sangah to act unusually drunk, which is later corrected by a skill. The main character then reveals his plan to lure Dionysus out, based on the two conflicting myths of his birth, suggesting that if Dionysus's mother is Persephone, then he has a direct line of communication with Hades' wife. The chapter ends with a reveal that this plan is meant to lure out Dionysus, while the main character worries about his companions.
