Sylvia

Sylvia loves Tiggins deeply, but she can't express her love, because she is just a beautiful lady who is addicted to wine and extravagance. Tiggins pushed further and further. Tiggins also loves Sylvia, respects her but sympathizes with her more. This irresolvable contradiction can only become a tragedy under the so-called traditional ethics. That Rococo tree that represents the so-called honor, just like its strong root system firmly controls the old house, firmly adheres to Tiggins' morality. It was not until that night of thick fog that his life seemed to penetrate. A ray of sunshine. Although Sylvia is not a new human rights advocate, although she is decadent, she understands this better than anyone else. So in the end, she cut down the old tree and freed Tiggins, but she extinguished her last love and hope, and eventually became a victim of that era. War can turn good people into demons, but it can also make people see themselves.
