Again, points if you can define it. If you're feeling clever, you can guess at the context.

I thought he was interesting. I'd always heard his most famous line, "God is dead" and assumed many things. When I actually read him, I was surprised to learn that he isn't nihilistic at all. Rather, he's quite the opposite. He focuses on the enjoyment of this life and therefore rejects religion since it focuses far too much on an abstract promise of a perfect life after death, ignoring the splendor of this one, and leading people to ignore it and their interpersonal relations during it as well.

[This is again in a folded note so others can play: I notice a trend of religious terms, including one about sacrifice, betrayal, and your brothers. The magnum opus, referring to the alchemical meaning rather than the common one, is a clue as well, especially when people know you a little better. The Lamb of God dies to cleanse humanity of its sins - do you think one of you has to die for the same reason?
And I don't think you're a burden. Just maybe you need to find someone other than your brothers to rely on. ]

Hm. Perhaps I'll start with him. He... seems to have some things I'd be interested in. So to speak.
[folded:
Ah, you are extremely clever. You've gained the first of my two meanings. Another has guessed the second. I'm impressed. Truly.
...that... is near to impossible. There was one-- But he is no longer here. And maybe it's not rely, but lean on and fall backwards. Down into the rabbit hole.]
