Visual Description
A gaunt, cloaked figure wrapped in a patterned brown robe sits on a cold stone floor near a large wooden door with heavy iron hinges, looking upward. Behind them is a tall stained-glass window in a church-like interior, the panes containing five pentacles that glow with golden light. Fluted stone columns and an arched doorway frame the scene, and pale light falls across the floor. The card bears the numeral 5 at the top and is bordered with a decorative floral motif.
