Visual Description
A lone figure with long blonde hair sits facing away in a small blue boat, a large pink heart painted on the back of their dark jacket. Six upright swords are planted in and along the boat's sides as it moves across calm, multicolored water toward a distant shoreline under a bright yellow sun. A pink backpack rests beside the figure in the boat and the sky is streaked with soft pastels at dawn or dusk.
