black ans white full page illustration of a giant charging down a rocky slope towards a young woman holding up a shirt made of locks of hair. The giant has a sword in one hand and a club in the other and smoke billowing from his nostrils. The giant is around twice the woman’s height but stopping slightly at her and is quite close to her. His whole body is covered in hair and he wears a jeweled helmet with a chainmail hood, a rough edged fur toga-ish garment covering one shoulder and held in place with a belt, and an ornate strap with a scabbard chained to it, and ornately-strapped sandals that wind up his legs. He has finger and toe claws and bracelets on both arms. The young woman wears a braided bun and fancy cap or hair ornament, a flowing dress with embroidery at the edges of it’s long dangling sleeves which blow in the wind and ribbon set into the belt and neckline, and pointed slippers with decorative cutouts or panels. The hair shirt is short sleeved and very large with many visible wavy tresses.
