Artistic Information: Complex lighting and juxtaposition of shadows plays an important role in the atmosphere of this scene. Three of the
lights are visible sources, with two on the ceiling and the sun outside casting shadows from the windows. Two more invisible light sources
provide backfill lighting in dark areas. The characters are derived from the Zygote models supplied with Cinema 4D but have have undergone
extensive remodelling to give them unique features and additional movement capability. The galactic holographier in the background uses
interlocked planes in all three axes, with alpha-masked textures, to create a 3-dimensional representation of a region of intergalactic
space.
Picture Story: Aboard the AMSS Paladin, Arnagest Lord Jal-Jhareth Aishelt discusses life in the Arnagest with his second daughter
Amhara, following her return from her Tribulation test on Antithesis.
