As volcanic mountains smolder in the distance, a large figure dominates the landscape. At top right, a helmed head rests atop a dark, articulated torso. Large feet are rounded in shape at the bottom of the image. Molten energy appears to course through the carapace. A fiery neck holds aloft the rectangular head, displaying a small face (looking down and left) of a feminine demeanor. Her face is similar to the right-hand figure in the Image “Eye of Apu.”

Haephstina Vulkanova is engaged in activity. Her right arm, spade shaped, rounded at the tip, appears to push back or create a channel on the ground, with the volcanic mountains in the distance. This channel may flow with water or molten matter. It is an example of terraforming behavior. Her left arm culminates at center bottom in a molten, multi-purpose self-arranging tool.  The darkness of this image is to mirror the soot-laden, gritty, volcanic environment. Lighter, brighter versions of Haephstina may become available in the near future. In the TIF image, “Haephstina’s Garden” other figures populate the scene at lower left and under her right arm.
