專案背景
《Oath of the Dragonfire》是一部史詩級的動作冒險小說，由 Caleb Stormrider 創作。故事發生在 Arthara 王國，在龍族消失後，王國逐漸走向毀滅邊緣。身為戰士的 Kaelen，為了拯救人民，必須踏上充滿危險的旅程，去尋找最後的龍之領主，重新點燃被遺忘的火焰誓約。
這本小說將「火焰」與「誓言」結合為核心意象，象徵榮譽、傳承與命運的羈絆。封面設計的挑戰在於如何將這股結合冒險與魔法的力量具象化，吸引讀者沉浸在這場關乎勇氣與犧牲的冒險史詩中。
Oath of the Dragonfire is an epic action & adventure novel written by Caleb Stormrider. Set in the Kingdom of Arthara—on the brink of collapse after the dragons’ disappearance—the story follows Kaelen, a warrior bound by honor and legacy. To save her people, she must embark on a perilous journey to awaken the last of the dragon lords and reignite the ancient oath of fire.
At its heart, the novel intertwines the symbols of flame and oath as representations of honor, legacy, and destiny. The cover design aimed to visualize this union of adventure and magic, creating a compelling image that draws readers into a saga of courage, sacrifice, and the enduring bond between humans and dragons.

專案需求
設計一款能展現「史詩感」與「誓言象徵」的書籍封面。風格需兼具奇幻小說的沉浸感、與現代讀者能共鳴的設計語言，並能適用於實體書印刷與電子書版本。
Design a book cover that embodies the epic tone of the story and conveys the symbolic weight of the oath between human and dragon. The design should merge immersive fantasy elements with a modern visual language, suitable for both print and digital formats.
設計理念
「龍焰」不只是毀滅的象徵，也代表重生與力量的延續。我以 火焰紋理 與 巨龍輪廓的張力 作為視覺核心，呼應「誓約」帶來的約束與燃燒。封面中光與影的交錯，暗示人類與巨龍命運的連結：既是衝突，也是共同的選擇。
Dragonfire symbolizes not only destruction, but also rebirth and enduring strength. I emphasized flame-like textures and the powerful silhouette of the dragon as central visual motifs, reflecting the tension of the oath. The interplay of light and shadow suggests the intertwined destinies of humans and dragons—marked by both conflict and shared resolve.
