Trying to find which "creature" to pick, and I though of the time I visited Iceland in 2013. We took a bus tour and the tour guide explained that local folklore spoke of the tales of elves living hidden in the mountains, and that a great part of the population actually thought they existed, her included, in a fun way, like she would like them to exist.
So I thought that maybe she was one of the mountain elves living among us, but hidden in plain sight, as a tour guide.
Prompt : a photorealistic render of a female folkloric Icelandic elf driving a tourist tour bus, and announcing what to look out for. We see an Icelandic landscape through the window. She is wearing a bus driver hat and is speaking to passengers with a big smile.
thumbs of horror!
I was wondering when someone would notice!
High-fantasy Truck Driving Simulator would probably print money.
Right???
The whimsical landscapes alone would beat whatever dry realism runs on your dad's laptop.
