Description
The image portrays an elder, smoking from a pipe, his head bowed in contemplation. Gold glimmers off the brim of his hat. Four strands of smoke rise from the pipe, intertwining with one another and reflecting a spectrum of colors. His scarf flows like water, while his shirt appears as thick, twisting foliage. This is always how I envisioned the creator whenever he appears in stories.
