Visual Description
A woman seen from behind trudges across a barren landscape at dusk, carrying nine ornate staves strapped to her back while holding a tenth upright. The sky is a gradient of twilight purple and pink sprinkled with stars, and low clouds hug the horizon. Each staff has a gem-like, faceted spearhead with red and gold detailing and long golden shafts. The card frame shows a black circle at the top with the Roman numeral X and decorative crescent motifs in the corners.
