The sneeze sent flame across the roost. Voss was barely fledged, and already his family's nest smoldered. His parliament feared him. Fire devours forests, and here was one of their own wielding it with every breath.
Years of meditation beneath the canopy taught him control. He held flame in his talons without burning a single leaf. Drove off winter wolves with walls of fire. Cauterized wounds when infection threatened lives. Cleared deadfall to prevent the wildfires that would consume Sylvaras whole.
Young owlkin gathered to hear his stories. Warriors sought his counsel. He became the heart of his parliament, proof that even wild magic could serve rather than destroy.
When Mahkah Hemlig began tearing forests apart, Voss volunteered first. He marched across the Broken Lands, a beacon for the six who followed.
The battle ahead is uncertain. The outcome far from decided. But Voss carries the forest's fury, sworn to cleanse the land or die trying.
Card lore
Hi Hive friends!
It’s been a long time, but today I’m finally sharing a new post. I created this one using AI, and turned it into a short video comic. I made the entire project using Elon Musk’s GROK AI Imagine, and it was a lot of fun to work with.
If you enjoy it, please leave a comment and show some support-
it really motivates me. I’ve been away for a while because of my exams, but now that they’re over, I’ll be sharing more of my creations with you all.
I love making comics and fun AI-based artwork, and today I’m entering the Splinterlands Art Contest - Week 374.

I really enjoy this contest and have missed being part of it. I’m planning to make short videos using Splinterlands art cards as well.
I’ve always loved Splinterlands card battles, and sometimes I just play the game because it makes me happy. The characters in Splinterlands are some of my favorites. Next time, I’ll also share a post about my gameplay.
Hope you’re all doing well — stay awesome everyone!
