The captivating realistic cover of "The Dragon's Quest" features a close-up of a determined young adventurer, his face smudged with dirt and sweat, holding a glowing crystal in his outstretched hand. The adventurer has brown messy hair and is wearing a brown leather jacket with multiple pockets and a sturdy belt. Behind him, ancient temple ruins are visible, bathed in the ethereal light emanating from the crystal. Above him, a dragon is perched atop the ancient temple, wings partially unfurled, one claw resting protectively on a large, glowing crystal, intense piercing yellow eyes gazing forward with wisdom and power. The title, "The Dragon's Quest," is emblazoned across the top in bold, stylized lettering, hinting at the mystical journey that awaits.
