Visual Description
A bare-chested man in a short red kilt stands at the center, holding aloft a circular disk that bears a screaming Gorgon's head. Around him a crowd of armored soldiers bow, cover their faces or shield their eyes; helmets, spears and shields fill the foreground. The sky is washed in pinks and purples with rays of light, and the card is framed by a decorative golden border with the word PENTACLES at the top and multilingual suit names at the bottom.
