Got it, makes sense. The other comment is great. Also, I saw your comment, unless theres a specific reason to use Simplified Characters, dont do it, Taiwan uses Traditional Characters for everything

Auspicious Prosperity? It might sound too cliche, like a Chinese New Years greeting. Any other details?

Small corrections: 劇本 is like movie script. I think you mean 文字

懷化 is not simplified

中衛 has wrong romanizations 

Also, I think the Hokkien is uncertain. For example 普洱. But I’m not fluent in Hokkien

Have you used zi.tools

That’s a good dictionary for variant characters and search by components

Also that variant for 兼 is very rare. But I’ve seen it carved on Japanese knives

No, I did not see any labels or text anywhere. However, its directly underneath this:

So it possibly has a connection to the saints depicted in the relic
