Maleficium Emergence by Adehenne on DeviantArt (original) (raw)

In the heart of a decaying forest, a demon emerges from a pool of thick, black tar, its pale, gaunt skin gleaming eerily against the dark, mist-covered landscape. Its sharp claws drip a foul-smelling black ichor and its sinister red eyes burn with malevolent intent. The skeletal, twisted trees surrounding the demon seem to lean towards him, as if drawn by his dark power, creating an atmosphere of suffocating dread.
