Stellar Priest Among the Stars

An ethereal priest in ornate ceremonial robes with gold embroidery and glowing cross motifs stands on a small rugged asteroid, drifting through a vast star-filled cosmos. He gazes upward toward the infinite universe. The robes float softly in zero gravity, and a gentle halo of light frames his head. Behind him, a celestial tapestry of stars, neon nebulae in electric blues, violets, and pinks, and distant spiral galaxies stretch to the horizon. Subtle particle dust swirls, lens flares bloom, and volumetric lighting adds depth. The scene is a high-detail digital painting with painterly textures, crisp lines, and luminous colors. Composition: three-quarter view, slightly low-angle, cinematic lighting.
