Visual Description
A man strides across rocky ground carrying ten long wands bundled together in his arms. He wears a blindfold and simple clothes with boots, one leg lifted as if stepping over an obstacle. The sky behind him is a dramatic purple-pink with a full moon rising, and low fields stretch to the horizon. The wands fan out around him and some ends touch the earth.
