A dark, brooding forest serves as the backdrop, with ethereal mist weaving through ancient trees. In the center, a pulsating heart made of intricate runes, glowing faintly, hovers in mid-air, drips of blood falling to the forest floor. Dark shadows loom, with faint outlines of mythical creatures in the periphery.
The title "Heretic’s Heart" is in an ornate, Gothic-style font, with a slight metallic sheen, placed slightly above center. The author name "Ladymidnight" uses a simple, elegant serif font at the bottom of the cover.
The title sits prominently just above the center of the cover, directly over the glowing heart. The central image dominates the cover, with the author’s name placed subtly near the bottom. The mist provides a continuous flow from the top to the edges, creating a seamless illusion around the heart.
The visual composition uses a dark forest to emphasize the elements of mystery and intrigue, with the glowing heart serving as a focal point, drawing readers into the sinister yet fascinating world. The Gothic-style font effectively communicates the fantasy genre while reinforcing the dark, magical theme. Using matte paper with a slightly textured finish enhances the visual depth and tactile engagement, aligning with the dark, mysterious atmosphere desired for the cover. The centered layout capitalizes on viewer focus, creating an unsettling yet compelling visual narrative that beckons potential readers.
