Bands of aurora ripple across a starry sky, shifting from violet on the left through emerald in the centre to deep crimson on the right. Dark, jagged mountains with snow in their crevices line the horizon.

In the foreground, tall faceted crystals rise from the rocky shore, and small glowing plants dot the ground. A sheet of ice fills the lower half and carries soft reflections of the sky, so the colour appears to pool at the viewer's feet.
