The Light of God Powers the Universe
#3
Oddly enough, it started with a discussion about the issue of abortion. I was having a conversation with a Muslim person about when the soul enters the body of the baby in the womb.

No long after that conversation, I happened to be looking at the manuscript illustrations and then when I saw the star entering the body of the sleeping woman it just popped into my head that it was a picture of Ensoulment.

After studying the illustrations, I realized that the main story of Quire 13 is about Ensoulment. I think that is the main theme of the work. I think the part about Heaven and the afterlife is just the end wrap-up and not the main theme. I know from the point of view of the Church, the main goal is to get souls to Heaven but I don't think that is the main theme of the manuscript. I think it is more about getting the pre-born souls from Heaven to Earth.
