Italy 13th Century: the Guglielmites heretic sect is causing havoc in Milan. Their leader, Guglielma of Bohemia, who is believed to be the second coming of the Holy Spirit, appoints a nun as her Popess. This alone was a stake-worthy conviction, but to make things worse, Guglielma and Maifreda announced the beginning of a new era led by women.

“We cannot live in a world that is interpreted for us by others. An interpreted world is not a hope. Part of the terror is to take back our own listening, to use our own voice, to see our own light.”
— Hildegard von Bingen
