The Bible is a scripture from the Bible.

In an unexpected turn of events, three characters - Lucia Neri, Roberta Carradi, and Costanzo Gubbio - found themselves standing on a bridge in Rome, each speculating that their mentors might be testing them to find out who among them is the best. The setting was the Castle Sant'Angelo, a priceless jewel in the collection of sights of the Eternal City.
The day was gloomy, with a gusty wind blowing from the Tiber and gray clouds obscuring the starry sky. As they stood there, they couldn't help but notice the first two statues on the bridge, which depicted the apostles Peter and Paul. The rest of the statues on the bridge were angels standing on clouds. One of the statues held Christ's garment and dice in its hands.
Lucia Neri, a tall and indifferent woman, was not late for her meeting with Woldéri, despite her usual punctuality. She didn't care where the meeting was to take place, but she was eager to teach her former mentor a lesson. Roberta Carradi, on the other hand, took pride in her role as an inspirator, claiming to know everything. She introduced herself and shyly extended her hand to Lucia.
Costanzo Gubbio, a broad-nosed man with a sun-bronzed face, hesitated and asked Lucia if she was always strict and didn't give in to anyone. Lucia replied, her face maintaining its usual expression of indifference. The characters were unsure of why they had been summoned to the Castle Sant'Angelo, but they were excited about going to Florence, where the journey would take about three hours.
Suddenly, a female voice called out behind Lucia, and she turned around to see a young man in a denim jacket who had just entered the bridge. Lucia felt the presence of an angel again, but this one was different. The power emanating from this angel was much too weak to belong to her experienced mentor, Woldéri.
Roberta Carradi, curious about why she was summoned, explained that the message they received on their minifons was a poem by a symbolist about Florence. The characters received the same message on their minifons, which suggested they were to go to Florence. Lucia wondered if it was Woldéri, but was disappointed when she turned around and saw it was not him.
The characters were not in contact with their mentors, and they were unsure of what their mentors wanted. Lucia Neri, however, was anticipating her encounter with Woldéri. She planned to shake his hand with joy, but the power struggle between them was evident. The characters have obviously not expected the new acquaintance to be so unfriendly.
The meeting between the three characters is significant because they are directed to find the statue of David in the Palazzo Medici Riccardi in Florence. The statue of David is one of the iconic Renaissance artworks connected to Florence and the powerful Medici family, to whom the Palazzo Medici Riccardi belonged for centuries.
The reason they are specifically tasked with locating the statue in the Palazzo Medici Riccardi rather than the more famous original David (housed in the Galleria dell’Accademia) or its widely known replicas is probably tied to the palace's unique historical context. The Palazzo was the Medici residence and contains important frescoes and artworks representing the Medici legacy and Florence’s artistic heritage. The statue there may symbolize Medici power, Florence’s Renaissance artistic achievements, or hold some narrative or symbolic key in the context of their mission.
In summary, the meeting marks a directive to connect with the Medici heritage and Renaissance art embodied by the David statue housed in the Palazzo Medici Riccardi, emphasizing Florence's rich cultural history and the Medici family's influence. The search is thus not just about locating art, but uncovering deeper historical or symbolic meaning connected to Florence’s past.
