Bacchus was the god of the grape harvest, wine-making and wine, of ritual madness and ecstasy in Greek mythology. He is a god of epiphany, "the god that comes", and his "foreignness" as an arriving outsider-god may be inherent and essential to his cults.

I wanted to tell the story of an god drowned in the misery and how he would end if he achieved what all gods desire, being human, being limited. But what he did not known was that human beings are much more powerful than any divine being. tenacity, perseverance, determination and courage are just a few qualities that make human beings so exceptional some of those qualities must be learned from child and others are innate.

When Bacchus became human he not forgot his divinity and lived like he was immortal. That was his perdition. On his last hours of living, he realized that he could control gods even control humans, but he could not control himself.
