Chiron Chooses Down

Menippus asks Chiron why a god chose to die. Chiron explains, calmly: immortality became repetition, and pleasure depends on going without. The underworld is fine — equality is democratic, no hunger, no thirst. Menippus, gently, points out that sameness down here will eventually wear him out too, and there's no third option on offer. Chiron asks what to do. Menippus tells him: be content. Cast: Menippus, Chiron.
