The Bright Cross Mural first appears in Volume 2 as a vivid, colored depiction of a mountain range crowned by a brilliant cross, surrounded by angels and two distinctive infants that symbolically record divine succession. Across the series, the mural evolves from a static religious icon into a living chronicle whose imagery shifts to mirror the ascension and fall of deities, the rearrangement of angelic hierarchies, and the rewriting of cosmic succession lines. Its infants, initially mere symbols, become prophetic figures whose identities and fates are revealed to be intertwined with the protagonists’ own hidden lineages and the ultimate struggle over the Throne of Heaven.
