This God Was Sewn Into His Father's Thigh and Born Twice.

Dionysus is the god of wine. Most people stop there. His origin story is far stranger. His mortal mother Semele was killed by the sheer force of Zeus revealing his true form. Zeus pulled the unborn Dionysus from her body and sewed the baby into his own thigh. Dionysus grew there until he was ready to be born a second time. He is the only Olympian with a mortal parent.
