As the food appeared, Emeris began to eat. He was laughing with the group. 

Mr. D got up and started trying to sing karaoke to everyone's dismay. He was starting to get angry and hurt that they didn't want to sing, but he conceded for the moment, and brought out the real talent. It was a group of Emeris's brothers who had started a band. He clapped for them. "They didn't tell me they were the talent for tonight." he said to the group, while still clapping and cheering. 

The feast wore on and the night deepened. Everyone was laughing and cutting up. A few scuffles had broken out among some of the more competitive cabins, but Chiron had broke them up fairly fast, and told them to settle their differences during training the next day. Another couple of kids tried to instigate a food fight, but Mr. D quickly told them that if they continued that course they would be polishing armor for the next 8 months. 

All in all it was a great feast. The band had finally finished playing and one of Mr. D's kids got up to tell a story to the camp. It felt as though everyone was holding their breath as the kid wove his tale. He told of creation and the titan wars. He told of various heroes that they all knew. He was building up to the climax, when a crash sounded off to the side. A man dressed in rags fell crashing over a table and hit the ground. Emeris leapt up and ran over to the man. He was about to lift him up when the man stopped him, "STOP! Don't touch me. STAY BACK! I SEEK DIONYSUS!" he cried out. Emeris took a step back and looked to Mr. D.
