The next morning, the narrator tells the audience that Epix has died. Epix's family has decided not to attend her funeral. The narrator says that he will be seeing Epix again soon, but that he feels like his head is "about to split into two" . He feels like he "couldn't bear the poster there" , that he "unrelentingly unmiraculously fingertips" handed out at the festival, and that he wrote to his friend Brunhilde when he was kicked out. He says that this will be the biggest festival he has ever been to, and he likes the dress. He tells the crowd that he has been through hell, and asks them to remember him from the rag-na-rock festival. He asks if there is any chance of the festival being a "vintage" or "middle east" style of culture, and says that in terms of Western culture, there is "little hope" of anything worthwhile. He reminds the audience of his own experience, when he locked himself in the toilet cubicle and was "fearful" of everything. He wants to do "some cons, gigs whatever " .
