We Are All Just Costumes Death Wears For A Season.
“The 13th Step” is Dionysus’ final broadcast — speaking to whoever’s still listening. He talks about Yukio Mishima, about the maize god and Osiris, about the strange arithmetic by which a man becomes a myth and the myth outlives the man who carried it. By now, he’s the last one left to tell it.
This is the most interior passage of the season: a reckoning with sacrifice, story, and what endures once everything else is buried.
If the myth holds true, Dionysus will return — and if it doesn’t, maybe the doctors were right all along.
