A dark, atmospheric book cover illustration. A small, old, blackened wooden chapel with a crooked cross stands in the center, surrounded by a perfect ring of ancient burial mounds covered in moss and dead grass. Towering black spruce and pine trees form a dense, impenetrable wall around the clearing. It is a grey November dawn, the sky low and heavy. Three yellow candle flames flicker on the chapel's stone steps, unshaken by wind. A faint white glow pulses from between the logs of the chapel walls. On the ground: a piece of dark bread and a mound of salt. A thin, barely visible luminous thread stretches from the chapel into the dark forest depth. Muted color palette: charcoal black, deep forest green, cold grey, with a single warm amber accent from the candles. Slavic folk horror aesthetic, painterly style, muted, eerie, quiet dread.
