A tumultuous, storm-filled sky looms in the background, painted in gradient shades of deep purples and blues. The ruins of an ancient Pompeian structure rise sharply from the foggy ground to the left, covered in vines and cracked with age. In the center foreground, Alex Ashthorn stands tall, his long coat flowing in the wind. His face is partially illuminated by the faint, mystical glow of the artefact he holds – an orb-like object with swirling, otherworldly patterns within it. Behind him, barely visible but utterly imposing, is the faint, ghostly silhouette of a Titan, half-dissolved into the storms above but unmistakably gargantuan and menacing. Jagged cracks of lightning frame the Titan and pulse towards the glowing artefact, creating symmetry and tension in the composition.

These physical and design choices merge to produce a cover that is visually striking, genre-accurate, and deeply resonant with the themes of suspense, mythology, and power.
