cover for a DnD 5e book. At the top, bold text reads: "Scars of the Past", with the subtitle: "The Siege of Quaervarr" just below. The artwork shows a northern town in winter, its stone walls and watchtowers under attack. Snow covers the ground, while orcish hordes, carrying torches, march toward the defenses. Siege engines and catapults launch fiery projectiles at the walls, which crack and crumble, filling the sky with smoke. At the forefront, a few heroic figures stand tall against the orc forces, weapons drawn, ready to defend. The leader, Zarkos, a male warrior with long brown hair and pale skin, raises his sword high, rallying the armored knights by his side. His expression is resolute, commanding, a symbol of defiance amidst the chaos. Behind them, the forest looms, dark and foreboding, while snow continues to fall softly in contrast to the destruction. The scene is tense, with the orc army advancing and the town’s defenses buckling under the siege, but the presence of the heroes adds a flicker of hope to the dire situation.
