DIANE: Recognize me? No? God of agriculture, wine and song? It’s cool, it's been a while.
I’ve been called by many names - Bacchus, Bromis, Dionysus. I was born thousands of years ago - sprang fully formed from my father’s thigh, crossed the foamy seas of Aegan to Asia Minor, then traveled on foot down into Thrace, hunting and reveling and bringing ruin to those who doubted me.
