True Blood2008

Sophie-Anne:
Maenads are sad, silly things... the world changed centuries ago and they're still waiting for the God who comes.

Bill Compton:
Does 'he' ever come?

Sophie-Anne:
Of course not. Gods never actually show up, they only exist in humans' minds, like money and morality.

Bill Compton:
If I can't kill her, how do I get her to leave Bon Temps?

Sophie-Anne:
She has to believe she successfully summoned forth Dionysus in hope he will ravage her and quite literally devour her until she is lost into oblivion.

Bill Compton:
So she seeks death? The true death. The only thing she has evolved beyond.

Sophie-Anne:
You know they're really not that smart, these maenads.

Bill Compton:
So how does she summon this non-existent god of hers?

Sophie-Anne:
I never said he was non-existent. I just said he never comes. She believes if she finds the perfect vessel, sacrifices and devours part of him or her, plus surrounded by the magic of her familiars then her mad god will appear. At that point when she willingly surrenders herself to him...

Bill Compton:
That's the only point she can be killed.
