A woman traversing deep grassy hills. She wears a cloak of some sort and her hair hangs in dense curls to her shoulders. The sky is cloudy gray-purple and the moon is obscured. In stylized text the title of the story is marked in the upper left corner: The Day My Dream Died. A surreal, glitchy overlay of texture colors the image.

New miniseries based on an idea I had in passing. Couldn’t find an established aesthetic it quite fits so until someone tells me it already exists I’m calling it Lightcore. Using shadows and reflections primarily so light is sorta the core of it. Probably fits as a subgenre of dreamcore or something
