The Chrysalids

The Chrysalids is a story of mutation, escape, and hope. In this redesign, I blur the boundary between mutation and purification, creating an atmosphere where false sanctity and otherness intertwine to welcome new life.

In a sacred lake, scarlet flowers and strange mushrooms entwine. A beam of light falls—and dawn breaks.
