Have I mentioned how pleased I am to have made your acquaintance?" "A toast in your honor, Lord Dionysus mate. "Now that is something, a right princely gift, there, Zag, and just so happens I got something here I have been meaning to give you!" "Lord Dionysus, it's been great getting to know you, so, please accept this humble offering."
"Wine does have a rather special way of making everybody look even more beautiful than ever, Dionysus dear! And from such beauty, why, long-lasting love is born! And also shorter-lasting love, much of the time." "Look, Zag, you should know by now that when it comes to feasting, it's Yours Truly here who puts on the best performance. "Um, yeah, milady, I take issue here! I mean how are the grapes supposed to grow and wine supposed to flow when you are so uptight, now, just ease up a little there, let's see what we can do!"
Although we do have those upon Olympus who take issue with my reasoning." "The crops shall wither and decay so long as I may please, young Zagreus. Regardless, you'll not coax a better crop from me." "I dare say, my lord Dionysus, that partaking of less wine for some amount of time might do you good. "Hey Zag, got a favor here I mean to ask, could you maybe persuade the Lady Demeter to ease up on the whole 'not let anything grow' thing she's been going on about?" A successfully conducted war is certainly a cause for celebration, is it not?" "Why, my Lord Dionysus! I fail to see why such discussion is perceived as unbecoming of a feast.
"You know, Zag, maybe once you get here, you could get old Ares to just lighten up a little, you know, man? Always dragging down the mood, with talk of blood, and nastiness, all sorts of stuff like that!" There's nothing like a feast after a war, all right! Provided you're on the surviving side, that is! Otherwise I guess they'll be feasting with you down there, Zag!" "Yeah, yeah, Ares, I will hand it to you, man. "Ah, my kin! I was just inquiring with Lord Dionysus here, under which circumstances are the greatest mortal feasts of all prepared? Because I have a certain hunch, regarding that." Perhaps someday he can instruct you in the customs of Olympus here." "That Dionysus, always much too kind with introductions, though at least he shows me suitable respect. "Hey Zag, my Dad, he's here and wants to have a word, be cool man, go along with what he says, OK?" "Oh, anyway we're here, man, waiting up for you! We know you're going to make it, I would say eventually!" "Erm, Zag your uncle's passing through, not Dad, the other one I mean, and he just wanted to check in, see how you're doing, so."Īh-hah, there you are, my little nephew! Dionysus showing you the ropes, or what? You want a real feast, though, you just stick with me now take my blessing, go! Although, be that as it may, I shall attempt to remain focused on your situation. "Perhaps Lord Dionysus here is the true god of strategy, as it appears he is uncannily aware of my next move, Cousin. "Hey, Zag, when you arrive, it's going to be a real scene, I'll tell you now! Even Athena here will cut loose for a bit, let down her hair, you know, put on something more comfy, yeah, it's going to be great!" "Oh, come on, Athena girl, you really mean to tell me that discovering a long-lost relative isn't a cause for celebrating right away, I mean, you can't be telling me a thing like that? Because if Zag isn't a cause for feasting, I don't know what is!" My Lord Dionysus here, he goes about as though this is a festive matter of some sort!" "Some members of our family do not yet fully understand just how precarious your situation is, Cousin. "Eh, tells me I'm being an awful load, and to back off, all sorts of nasty stuff like that, what can you do, though, right?" "Oh, great, it's you, Zagreus! Here, let me offer you some fine new Boons, as well as Lord Dionysus here, who I am sure would love to talk your ear off just as much as mine!" "Leave it to the god of wine to liven things up around here." "Heeey, there, Zag, man, how's it going? Look, you have got to get here with the rest of us already, we been saving you a spot! Let me see what I can do, make life a little sweeter for you in the meantime!" "That was.revelry? People having a good time? Well, sure, then! In the name of Hades! Olympus, I'll accept this message."
