Is this a JoJo reference?

[@defectivetoaster7713]

This really works because holy diver already has lyrically medieval/fantastical themes, but because of the plunky sound of the instruments it really gets rid of the aggression you’d find with the guitar, instead giving it a more dramatic, decisive sound

Realizing the Stardust Crusaders weren't the only Crusaders

[@m0rtez713]

From the tale of Stardust Crusaders: Somewhere, sometime nightime in the streets of Quairo: Fusty sir! S-Stayeth backeth! R-Runneth Johannes. Wend not near that gent. D-Distance, keepeth thy distance. S-Stayeth hence from that gent! Thee'are nay matcheth... *dies* I've already taken careth of Karl too. Pi're might not but beest hiding somewh're. Hah. But t doesn't matt'r. Thou art next, Johannes! Thee bastard. Dio! Oh? Thou art approaching me? Instead of running hence, thou art coming right to me? Coequal though thy grandfath'r, Joseph, toldeth thee the secret of ZA WARUDO, liketh an exam inhorn man scrambling to finish the problems on an exam until the lasteth moments bef're the chime? I can't beat the horror out of thee without getting clos'r. Oh ho! Then cometh as closeth a thee liketh!

Fun fact of your day: the picture chosen is part of the most widespread story of the middle ages, namley the "history" of Alexander the Great. After having conquered the known world, he wanted to know what the sky is like, so he flew up on a sort of cart pulled by griffons (spoiler, the big man in the sky casts himn down). His griffon flight was also a widespread iconographic motive, for example you can find it on the Basilica of San Marco (Venice) or in the Münster of Basel. After that, he wants to know what the sea is like, so he dives down in a glass barrel (what you see in the picture). Interestingly enough, the fist conception of the diving bell came from Aristotle, Alexanders teacher.
