The girl doesn’t fancy the boy (Dionysius, the Greek god of wine and enjoyment), so the boy kills her.
This stems from a Greek myth about a beautiful girl called Amethyst.
The word comes from the Greek amethyein or amethystos meaning ‘not be drunk’.

When I spoke to my gemologist friend Jo Williams, she said it is because Amethyst, literally throws out energy from the points of its shards. I always feel my rocks but this experience was exponential. I spent a lot of time in the Tucson gem show, resonating around 6 foot tall pieces of Amethyst. But what about the power of Amethyst & its spiritual meaning?
