Description

We Are All Just Costumes Death Wears For A Season. Fresh off their escape, Dionysus and the others duck into a roadside bar to hide and regroup. Instead they meet Lilith, a redheaded woman who can take over a room without raising her voice. Soon she has them on stage, turning their panic into a set and the crowd into something louder and stranger than a normal show. People don’t just cheer. They move together, as if they’ve been waiting for a cue for bacchanal. Afterward, Lilith names the thing they’re apparently building: Babylon.  Knowing that they’re still fugitives, they stop improvising and start organizing. They steal a mobile broadcast rig, repaint it, and make it their rolling base of operations. Later, Dionysus hits record on an open transmission, and for the first time in a while their story isn’t confined to one room.
