Visual Description

A three-headed dog stands on a rocky shoreline, its heads alert and mouths open, with a cluster of rods or wands trailing behind and tethered to it. Jagged pinkish cliffs rise in the background above a calm stretch of water. In the lower foreground, several ghostlike cloaked figures move away toward the shore, drawn faintly and almost transparent. The card border shows a decorative frame and multilingual suit names, and the numeral 8 appears at the top.
