Visual Description
A stern, armored king sits on a carved throne holding a long sword vertically with the tip resting on the ground. He wears a dark cloak and his face is serious and focused; a horned helmet or skull rests in his lap. Behind him the throne has ornate reliefs and tattered wing-like banners arc outward in the shadowed background. The palette is muted browns and greys, with a cold gleam along the sword and highlights on the metalwork.
