A digital illustration of a younger Lord Ruler walking out of a burning building unscathed. He is walking towards the viewer, rings decorating his fingers, his long coat and formal-looking outfit partially ablaze, revealing unmarred skin underneath. His long dark hair is similarly untouched by the flames. His downcast eyes hide a dark look, but the array of weapons and tools surrounding him, and subtly attached to his chest with blue steel lines, reveal his destructive intent. A multi-story building, perhaps an inn, has gone up in flames behind him, and fire similarly trails his footsteps.

A digital illustration of Szeth using Division during his fight against the stone shaman Rit. Szeth is portrayed in his iconic white outfit, emerging explosively from a stone pillar. The illustration captures him mid-leap, Shardblade in hand, a trail of sparks, dust, and flame following his emergence from the stone, where a spiderweb of smoldering cracks outlines the remains of his rocky prison. Other stone pillars crowd the giant monastery hall at odd angles, all illuminated by the large windows in the distant background.

A digital illustration of Mishram, sitting on the ground and cradling a dying singer. Mishram looks a lot like a female singer with deep violet, nearly black, skin, streaked with red and white patterns. Jagged red carapace decorates her shoulders and forearms like armor, while spikes of it frame a crown around her head. Her long and dark hair waves in the wind, turning into smoke. Cradled in her arms is the slumped body of an armored singer, white outfit soaked in blood. Mishram holds one of their hands, and magic like violet flame engulfs both of their hands. The entire scene takes place on an empty battlefield, broken weapons and patches of grass littering the background, blood and fearspren crowding the foreground. The skies are red with the last rays of the setting sun.

A digital illustration of Cultivation, standing in the midst of a lush environment. She appears in her human form, as a matronly woman, draped in a green dress that appears to be partially made of leaves, vines, and moss. Vines snake up and down Cultivation’s arms, and she works some magic. The power swirling around her forms the suggestion of draconic wings and horns.

A digital illustration of Gallant galloping through the Shadesmar skies with a herd of musicspren. Gallant is a powerfully built black Ryshadium. His saddle is embroidered with the Kholin glyphs, and a pair of swords attached to the saddle help convey that Ryshadium are larger than regular horses. Despite his massive bulk and military equipment, Gallant’s expression is almost smug. Surrounding him are several musicspren - horse-like spren, with ephemeral and ethereal bodies and elongated, slender limbs, sharper and smoother than what a real horse might have. Far below them is the Shadesmar ocean of beads, and in the far distance is this Realm’s cold sun.

An illustration of Skyward Flight and company hanging out and cleaning one of their spaceships, from chapter 22 of Defiant. The ship stretches diagonally across the top of the image; from left to right are Kimmalyn, FM, Hesho, Spensa, Nedd, Arturo, Alanik, and Sadie. Kimmalyn, standing, cleans the side of the ship with a rag. She is blushing with happiness. Beside her is a bucket with suds spilling out the top. Next to her, FM cradles a hyperslug in a sling, which she smiles down at. Hesho stands on his hoverdisc, facing the rest of the crew with his mask off and set to the side. He and Spensa both hold cleaning rags. Spensa sits cross-legged, grinning widely, her eyes closed. Nedd sits stretched out on the ground, head tipped back and hand to his chest in laughter. His other sleeve is empty. Arturo, standing, braces himself against the ship with one hand and peers under it with a look of shock. His other hand holds a datapad. Alanik crouches beside him, soaking a rag in another bucket of water. She looks over at the others fondly. Sadie hangs upside-down from a light-line on the right side of the ship. She is visible from the torso up (...or down, at the moment), with her blue hair in a ponytail dangling down, and is scrubbing the underside of the ship. She's smiling brightly. A few more slugs are scattered through the scene, on laps, in body slings, and investigating soap bubbles; one sits atop the ship. The humans and Alanik all wear blue jumpsuits, and Hesho wears a fancy blue outfit. The room is predominantly cast in blue light.
