"I recognize this ritual!"
Salvatore was sprinting down the street, shouting, "This is 'Untouched Heart Sings'!"
"It belongs to the domain of blood, dominated by the Blood and Desire Deity, the 'Goddess of the Cup'—"
The Goddess of the Cup—
Annan rarely heard this name in the Kingdom of Noah.
Although She is one of the True Gods, She is more commonly called "The Bringer of Desire". Philosophers usually believe that those who go mad without cause, or those who are overwhelmed by desire and commit foolish acts, have heard the whispers of the Goddess of the Cup.
And those more cultured individuals who have committed impulsive crimes tend to euphemistically explain their past misdeeds as "having once listened to the prayer of the Goddess of the Cup".
In the Kingdom of Noah, almost only those operators of the unconventional entertainment industries who are "not dressed modestly" would worship the Goddess of the Cup. It is hard to imagine Her as a True God.
