Visual Description
A young woman in a sailor-style outfit stands poised above a large pink scallop shell, one leg lifted as if dancing or stepping forward. Her hair flows behind her and she holds a small glowing symbol near her face while a golden crescent moon crowns the top of the frame. A wreath of stylized golden roses encircles her and translucent bubbles and star sparkles float across a teal, star-speckled background. At the bottom a decorative golden banner bears the title "The Empress."
