IMAGE DESCRIPTION:

Everything that comes to his way will be sent to destruction and even the grass never survives from his essence.
But if somebody find and masters the sword beside his path, there is still hope... That should be mysterious enough.

DESCRIPTION OF HOW THIS IMAGE WAS CREATED:

This is my second entry. The sword, the foorprints and the basic unit of the grass is modelled with Blender, the tree with POVTree, everything else is pure code.
The basic idea was to create a grass field, and I think I succeeded alright. All the tools are free, which I am proud of. I tried to get the
feeling of a dawn with some mist in the air but I am not quite sure if it really looks like that.
