[Image description: Two digital drawings of Okumura Rin, colored in dark blue and cyan. In the first, Rin is wearing a patrol uniform and floating in an empty space. He holds up his clawed hands and sheds tears from wide, bloodshot eyes as a torrent of fire arises from his demon heart, causing ashes to rain down. A pair of eyes with slit irises can be seen in the fire. A simple rectangular border is drawn around him, with an Arabic verse on top and a Hebrew verse on the bottom. English text near the verses reads, “HOW CAN I CRY WHEN IT’S ALL MY FAULT?! / HOW CAN I CRY WHEN I WAS BORN IN FLAMES?!”

In the second drawing, Rin kneels next to Yuri Egin, the ground beneath them bursting into flames. A barbed halo surrounds her as she tilts her head down and smiles gently, her eyes hidden under her hair. Rin cries as he lays his head in her lap and clutches her tattered dress with one hand. With his other hand, he reaches towards a large metal bolt that extends from the right side of the drawing. Another pair of Arabic and Hebrew verses are written within the border. English text on either side of the figures reads, “BUT YOU LOVED ME, YOU MADE ME, / YOU TAMED ME, YOU SAVED ME!” End image description.]

We appoint for him a satan, to be to him another self (qur’an 43:36) / and he sat upon the ashes (jonah 3:6)

We said, “o fire! be coolness and peace upon abraham!” (qur’an 21:69) / is this not a brand plucked from fire? (zechariah 3:2)
