A snow-covered valley stretched wide across the bottom of the cover, with jagged, towering mountains dominating the upper background. In the central focus is a massive medieval castle engulfed in bright, searing flames, black smoke billowing up into the cold blue sky. Surrounding the castle, a medieval army is attacking, with soldiers and massive war mammoths advancing toward the gates. Scattered weapons lie on the snow, creating tension and hints of chaos. The dramatic light from the fire reflects on the snowy foreground, adding contrast and intensity.

Bold serif font for the title, "The Guardians Creed," with intricate Celtic-inspired designs to evoke a medieval fantasy vibe. The title is styled in a glowing red-orange gradient, resembling embers. The author’s name, "Jordan Shore," is in a clean sans-serif font placed at the bottom center, in white, to ensure contrast and balance.
