The Fall and Return

Fifteen short panels. One man and his powers are driven down by a chain of errors, then brought back by prayer, the sacraments and the practice of the virtues, to stand again under the Light.

Panel 1: the Light above the ordered powers of the soul, and the man standing upright.

Prologue

The soul in a state of grace

The Light of God falls on the possible intellect; the agent intellect lights the phantasm; the will stands ordered to the good.
