"Are you feeling better now, sweet Death? I wasn't able to ask when I went to fetch you from your hellfire bath." Dionysus asked the snake on his shoulder.
"Not really. But I do feel like my mind is clearer. I have come to contemplate things that I have been ignoring for a while." Samael admitted.
Dionysus chuckled. "Oh, pray tell me about them."
Samael furrowed his brows. "Do you agree that love is the most powerful force in this world?"
"What a silly question to ask the embodiment of Desire." Dionysus chuckled.
Samael hissed. "Just say 'yes' or 'no'."
"Alright. Yes, I believe so." The wine god said, then his voice softened. "Do you?"
"I do. Perhaps enough to change fate itself." Samael said. "So I thought….. Perhaps I don't have to wait for my inevitable end too. Perhaps I don't have to wait for tragedy. Perhaps I could also hope."
Dionysus nodded. "Perhaps you could also hold on to love."
