Four silhouetted figures stand hand in hand at the bottom center of the cover, slightly raised on a rocky outcrop. They face an expansive, dystopian cityscape which stretches out under a storm-filled, dark sky. The city is in shades of gray, tinged with ominous greens and reds, with a colossal crystal watchtower adorned with a glowing clock face looming at its center. Beams of light shoot out from the clock, penetrating the gloom and casting long, eerie shadows. In the foreboding clouds, ghostly figures representing War, Famine, Death, and Pestilence can be faintly seen – each holding abstract shapes of a bow, arrow, and other symbolic weapons. Bright illumination behind the silhouettes creates a stark contrast between the darkness surrounding them and a hopeful, warm white light.

The title, "The Prince, the Pariah & the Paupers' Daughter," is hand-drawn with ornamented serif fonts, jagged yet elegant to evoke fantasy themes with a touch of darkness. The text is centered and split into three separate lines, with the first line slightly smaller in size. A luminescent white glow underscores the title. Below, the author’s name “Caerus Noman” is in a minimalist, clean sans-serif font in an understated matte silver.

The silhouettes are positioned on the bottom third of the page, providing enough space for the expansive cityscape and the tower to dominate the composition. The title is placed in the upper-middle, overlaying the storm-laden sky but partially illuminated by the white light emanating from the clock tower. The author’s name is subtly italicized and located at the bottom of the cover. The background and foreground blend seamlessly, with spot-gloss applied only on the clock tower’s glowing face and the title text, creating depth and focus.
