He hopes that his first communion will finally answer all of his questions but is disappointed when God remains silent to him. He thinks the communion will be a revelation to him from God. Feeling betrayed by the Christian God, Antonio looks to the Golden Carp and Ultima’s skills to help him reconcile his loss of innocence with his development as a young man.
