Metamorphosis of Shearan

Voices mocking the scars that lined Shearan's disfigured face soon dulled.

The loose rocks below her feet separated slowly. She could feel herself swaying forward. For a second, she shuttered, afraid of the emptiness below.

From the valley, an echo rose up. Arching her back, the shackles cracked, then broke loose from one end to the other. She lifted her head just as moisture spread around her body. Her swathe dissolved. Wings sprouted from the rear then expanded as they burst from their sleeves.

Shearan glanced down, closed her eyes, and stepped forward into the gentle breeze.

She was no more.

She smiled. No one told me that growth required change, she thought her wings glided over the mountain ridge.

For my current project. I utilized the services of StarryAI. This program is table diffusion software that uses text to describe the image you want to produce. I envisioned an ugly moth that transforms itself into a beautiful being.

Below are my steps:

First, I drew inspiration from an image from the LIL database contributed by @eve66. The image represents an angel in a sitting position.

Using the image as a starting point in StarryAI, I inserted the following description to see what I could produce:

StarryAI Text input:
"Angel with beautiful face sitting in gold and yellow with no background."

Method: Argo
Runtime: 50

Starry AI Result:

How beautiful the angel is. What I like most is the feet of the old moth transformed onto the nose of the new image. What amazing results.
