Faces of the journey

The existing portraits and ensemble artwork, with a way back to the stories.

The existing portraits and ensemble illustrations are preserved here, alongside the three Tempest images. Tempest’s three images establish her approved visual design. Other artwork captions describe what is shown without establishing new scenes or events. Select an image to view the original at full size.

Corran and an owl in a library, beside an open book; gold lettering names The Spiral Accord.

At the open book

Corran and Raven stand together in a dim arched space; Raven holds a light.

Into the dark

A paired illustration of exploration. It is presented as character artwork, not evidence of an otherwise unrecorded adventure.

Corran, Raven and an owl stand at a glowing circular console in warm amber light.

Beside the control station

The control station becomes a place for company. The artwork illustrates the familiar travellers without fixing the ship’s changing interior geography.

Corran stands in a blue doorway between a dark-haired woman and a red-haired woman, with an owl above his shoulder.

At the doorway

An ensemble image of Corran, Raven, Roxi and MINO, also used on the homepage. The books establish when each person travels; a group portrait is not a timeline.
