The central visual is a striking, abstract depiction of a time vortex, drawing the viewer into its depths. This swirling portal is rendered in vibrant blues and silvers, symbolizing the cold, uncertain nature of the future. Emerging from the vortex, ghostly silhouettes of historical and futuristic buildings represent the merging of different eras—ancient temples juxtaposed with futuristic skyscrapers. The overall color scheme is a gradient from deep navy at the top to a lighter silver at the bottom, suggesting a journey from the dark unknown to enlightened possibilities. The design aims to intrigue and draw potential readers into the story’s thematic core of time manipulation and destiny alteration, making it visually compelling for both digital thumbnails and physical print displays.
