These small details add to the emphasis on human and the reflection of the wondrous and sublime, with the small details helping to ground the story in a world that feels more human due to each of the small interactions we get to experience, rather than a vast overarching world right at the start.

These themes that prevail in romantic literature form the basis of the storytelling in amph. It is also pert of why the beginning was considered slow, in many romantic stories there is an emphasis in detailed story and world building, woth details that often feel unnecessary or superfluous.

He is the villain hunting down the chrysos heirs, he must kill them, again and again, sacrifice his humanity with each death to save the world he loves so much.

-as a person to continue the amphorean cycle and give the universe another chance.
Often romantic heroes are seen as rejecting prevailing moral codes in exchange for their personal morality and motivations. Phainon, as part of the plan of saving his world, must become the epitome of an anti hero

Meanwhile in the scepter created as a result of that war we see emotions and human idealism are the only thing keeping the universe safe from the release of iron tomb.
Phainon sacrificing his humanity, his past, the love of his country, his love of his friends, and finally his love of himself-

In a sense we see this directly reflected in the origins of the anti organic equation and the scepter's ultimate goal. The anti organic wars can literally be seen as a romantic struggle, emotions and nataure are seen as the direct antithesis to perfection, and have to be eliminated.

Certain storilines are pulled directly from Greek myths and character(mydei, tribbios, phainon, aglaea etc I can explain more if needed)

Now one of the big themes we see in romanticism is emotions over intellectuals.

It has-
Story based on classic greco roman tragedy, including hallmarks of literally tropes such as tragic hero facing and overcoming self, pantheon of god, cyclical nature of story telling oral histories, themes of man vs nature, vs fate, overcoming ego, a classical sense of an underworld.

There was also an idealization of heroics, valor, and exceptional people overcoming insurmountable odds while exploring their passions and inner struggles,expressions of emotion and the exploration of humanity and the grotesque. Even the themes of nationalism are directly explored in amph.

During this time you tend to see a focus on imagination, emotion, and an appreciation of classical literature and nature. It focuses on personal experiences, subjectivity over objectivity, nuances of morality, interest in the supernatural.

First of all let's talk about Romanticism in art-

Romanticism was an artistic movement in the 18th-19 century, and it was post enlightenment, so many writers and artists were rebelling against enlightenment ideals.
