John and I inspected the crack cover art for a while and we made some observations.

  • the circle of wires forms a sort of Portal. The wires are in the foreground together with some kind of dark blue shadow that looks like it has burnt holes. The dark blue shadows do not appear inside of the wire circle.
  • there are** dark blue cracks**, or rifts of some sort coming together behind the green haired character.
  • Au/Ra's left arm together with the crack symbol in the top left of the circle form a **clock that shows around 5:52 **. The arm and the symbol also cut the image in 1/3 2/3.
  • the sword seems to be randomly placed? Let us know what you think about that.
  • the armor seems to be mostly organic, kneepads have one gem embedded each. The chest area shows a cracked heart symbol, has more cracks than the rest of the armor and the character is wearing a sort of 5 leafed trinket.
  • there are different kinds of wires that can be identified by the direction they are going. Wires that go straight into the middle of the painting (45° or 90°), wires that form the circle. And wires that wrap around the characters hair but NOT around the body.
