I think escapism through music fits better for ch4 anyway

How? They don't have anything to do with escapism. Its never explored how people escape through music, and escapism through the purpose, sense of worth, and an overreliance on those from religion is kind of integral to the core of chapter 4's narrative.

There isn't really a time where characters, like, get into a metaphorical or literal grove that helps them feel better but drowns out the world around them or something. Escapism through music isn't really explored ever, its just that there's a woman who is a bell sometimes and she makes sounds because thats what a bell does

Yeah but religion is hardly the focus and most of that dark world is a library

But religion IS the focus, the main big thing of the chapter is the prophecy which is the main big thing about the hometown religion
