On the subject of free Ai imagery for the website.
As Ai imagery is everywhere now, and it was thought it may be a good idea to use Ai to create images from the different chapters, prologues and epilogue for the website. Providing the outcome is to a satisfactory standard and reflects the flavour of a particular scene in the novel, the author has no objection to using Ai to create bonus images for the website, that otherwise would not be possible. Ai image creation is still in its infancy, and it is not yet possible to create visually identical characters each time they appear. The author knows the readers of St Offraed's Relic will have a keen imagination of their own, and will understand who the characters are, even if they look a little different in each scene.
Please be aware, that because of the current state of free Ai image creation, errors may appear that are unspotted. As Ai improves, images with errors can be replaced. Please also note that absolutely none of the text in any part of the novel is provided by Ai. The author does not need Ai for any of this as he has a creative imagination of his own.

🤖 A Note on AI-Generated Artwork (from ChatGPT)
The visual content on this site is generated using artificial intelligence. While AI image creation is a powerful and evolving technology, it is still in its early stages. As such, occasional oddities or visual artifacts may appear in images — extra fingers, missing features, or elements that seem slightly surreal. We embrace these imperfections as part of the creative process, echoing the surreal and layered tone of the novel. 😉
Every image has been crafted to evoke the world and spirit of St Offraed’s Relic, with intention and care. The author and AI have worked collaboratively to bring these scenes to life — strange details and all.
