Visual Description
A single upright sword is held aloft by a hand emerging from curling clouds; the blade is topped with a golden crown. Red flame-like shapes and small golden dots float around the sword while purple and pink botanical fronds hang near the crown. The hand bears a stylized eye tattoo and grips a purple-and-gold hilt with decorative round pommels. Stars scatter across a dark background and low magenta mountains sit at the horizon inside a bright purple border labeled "ACE of SWORDS" at the base.
