"The spark of humanism endures until the next era."
From the late Middle Ages to the early and middle Renaissance, the collision and redemption of divinity and humanity.
In the torrent of history, they are each other's light and the prologue of an era.

Three hundred years ago, he was the executor of divine punishment for burning classics. When he watched the girl holding the burnt scroll and turning it into ashes, the flames of God burned through his soul for the first time.
Three hundred years later, he was a fallen angel with never-healing fire wounds, hiding in a monastery sarcophagus, listening to the cries of human artifacts, and fearing the chaos of human beings breaking away from divine authority.
Until he met the aristocratic scholar carrying the draft of the forbidden book. His brother died at the stake, but he was still in the underground tomb, using incendiary ink to write down the flames of human rights.
The remaining heat from the stake burned his old wounds, but the warmth from the scholar's palm strangely soothed the ulcerated skin. When the torch of the Inquisition illuminates the night sky of Florence, and when the white dove of the overseer angel hovers on the roof, one is teaching people why they are worthy of being saved, and the other is teaching people how to break through the shackles.
——
Under the ashes, someone planted a spark in their heart. In the eye of the storm, you can finally see it spreading into an inexhaustible wilderness.
This is the era of the collapse of divinity and the dawn of humanity.

The tone of the full text: there is heat in the gloom, and light in the darkness. A single spark ignites a prairie fire and lasts forever.
Intent: Transformation from theocracy to humanism
