An immense long-necked sky-beast formed from translucent saltglass and chalk-white bone ridges, internal light refracting into subtle prismatic highlights, drifting silently above an empty desert salt flat at night, a constellation of hovering crystal grains follows like a gentle comet tail, its footsteps never touch the ground, heat-haze-like distortions ripple around its body, distant mountains barely visible through haze, moonlit rim light, cinematic wide shot, ultra photoreal refraction and surface microcracks, tilt-shift depth cues, quiet awe, no steampunk, no cyberpunk, no typical fantasy tropes
