The Lost Tree of Life (JoSM#3)

A scene from the next and upcoming installment of my fantasy book series, The Journey of Sire Magnis -- 'Part 3: The Tree of Life.'

Our heroes venture to the Island of Levad where an ancient magical artifact known as 'The Tree of Life' was last seen. The Tree of Life is a magical codex, containing the genetic blueprint of every kind of living creature in the world. In the hands of good people, it can be used to restore creation to its original state, cure chronic disease, and even conquer barrenness. But in the hands of evil people, it can be used to create horrific, hybridized amalgamations of nature.

Join Sire and his friends on his journey in book 3! (coming in 2023 at some point)

Starry AI reference image, used for texturing.  I don't believe AI can or should replace artists, but there's definitely a good use for it in simple concept art generation.
