Inspired by the Holy Sword Deus Irae, Flavius sought out a new armour that could withstand the dragon's acid breath. Gold, it was argued, was good against acid but far too soft and heavy to be viable armour. Flavius needed a miracle to beat the dragon, so he sought one out. It would come in the form of an analog: The gold armour, divinely hardened & lightened, was a physical counterpart to 'spiritual armour', sacred protection, divine providence.
Note the light reflected in his armour and three of the four moons high in the sky.
