Visual Description

A small pale ghost stoops forward carrying a heavy bundle of ten wands that look like bone-shaped sticks. The ghost walks along a rocky path up a green hill toward a distant town or castle on the horizon beneath a star-speckled sky. Stones and tufts of grass mark the way and the ghost's sheet trails slightly behind. The palette is muted greens, blues and warm browns, and the scene feels quiet and earnest.
