Wading through some long lost Welsh kingdom ✨
A woman wading through some water dotted with fragments of castle ruins and twisted trees, she's looking back with hair and dress trailing in the water behind her. In the background is an ethereal tower, to the sides are old celtic vine patterns

Painterly bust portrait of a kindly earth genasi woman. She has a soft, sweet smile. Her skin is warm grey with a pearlescent sheen where the light hits. Her hair is dark brown, curly and arranged in a messy low bun. She wears a purple cloak with a thin gold border over a simple cloth tunic in an orange shade. Her jewellery is gold: sunburst earrings and a pendant of the Church of Lathander. The background is a pastel sunrise sky. Blackbeard tarot card painting from OFMD. A kraken tentacle emerges from the sea and has begun circling him. A rapier pierces his heart, where he holds a swatch of red cloth. The sword points to a distant lighthouse on the horizon Compilation of three stylised headshot portraits of Angela Lansbury as Jessica Fletcher. On the leftmost she is smiling cheerfully. In the middle she has her classic disappointed face with eyes closed. In the last she stares in surprise. A stylised portrait of David Tennant as The Doctor and Catherine Tate as Donna. They are clinched close, both looking alarmed towards something offscreen to the right of the image. The background is a starry sky.
