Moon Magic - the landing of a mysterious castle in the city

Today's pixel art is based on the Shin Megami Tensei II video game for the Super Nintendo. It's a mystical video game. Tarot cards, magic, demons, the otherworldly world. And it turns out the game was on both the NES and the Super Nintendo. We wander through labyrinths. And watch the phases of the moon. Monsters can be more or less numerous. You can talk to them. And recruit them into your team. I played a little, but not this one. I played it on PlayStation 1 and 2. I really like Persona 2.

And this is my drawing based on Shin Megami Tensei 2 (SNES). You're in a mysterious castle. It's landed in the middle of town. And you're drawn there by magical power. The fog clears. The door opens. And lanterns float in the air before you.

The wizard studies you carefully. His gaze is critical. He's serious. He floats slightly in the air on a magic carpet. He holds a crystal magic ball in his hands. It glows in different shades. Gray, blue. The wizard alternately looks into the ball and then at you.

"Aha!" the wizard said in a low voice. He's not a man of many words.

You stared at him in amazement. And couldn't help but move. Not say anything. Red velvet. Those are the curtains. This room looks very theatrical. Like a low-budget Asian action movie. Hong Kong, Bruce Lee. With a mystical Asian flavor on VHS.

"Well, of course!" the wizard said. And he looked only at the crystal ball.

After these words, the eyes from above began to peer at you intently. It seemed this wasn't just a set. You came to your senses. And even began to move. You took a couple of steps to the side. You stood up. With a clear desire to leave this place. Where were you going? It was a city. An ordinary street. And then, instantly, the castle landed. An ancient one. With this wizard.

You were sucked in like a vacuum cleaner. And then the wizard looked at you. Eyes from above were watching you just as intently. And then the wind blew. And you were carried away. Back. Through the great hall to the castle exit. You were an unexpected guest. Apparently. And you were of no interest to the wizard. You saw his magic carpet swaying. It really was hanging in the air.

The smoke cleared. And the castle doors closed. Before your eyes. But it seemed the city had become somehow different. And the sky. Something had changed. The moon. What a bright moon. Like a beacon. There had clearly never been a moon like this before!
