The visual style is a synthesis of photorealistic art and a painterly brushstroke artwork. The Ancient Skiff carved a silent path through the only remaining vein of liquid black in a world surrendered to ice. To both sides, the river lay trapped under a jagged white crust, with colossal cliffs, slick with frozen ice. This narrow lead was the only thing separating the boat from the crushing embrace of the frost.
Hel, the ruler of Helheim, whose exact appearance is derived from the image reference, standing silent at the stern of a ancient skiff. She guides the vessel through a narrow ice-free lead of the river Gjöll. Style: Eerie, somber atmosphere of the Norse underworld Helheim, cinematic fog clinging to the dark water.
Angry air spirits, ward off fate, icy blue, circle Hel, not too close, they do not attack either. The color icy blue should ensure a light shade in the image, but the color should not dominate the image.
