Trying to find which "creature" to pick, and I though of the time I visited Iceland in 2013. We took a bus tour and the tour guide explained that local folklore spoke of the tales of elves living hidden in the mountains, and that a great part of the population actually thought they existed, her included, in a fun way, like she would like them to exist.

So I thought that maybe she was one of the mountain elves living among us, but hidden in plain sight, as a tour guide.

Prompt : a photorealistic render of a female folkloric Icelandic elf driving a tourist tour bus, and announcing what to look out for. We see an Icelandic landscape through the window. She is wearing a bus driver hat and is speaking to passengers with a big smile.

The whimsical landscapes alone would beat whatever dry realism runs on your dad's laptop.

Fun prompt :) I learned about this one:

Dobhar-chú

a creature of Irish and Scottish folklore. It resembles both a dog and an otter, though it sometimes is described as half dog, half fish. It lives in water and has fur with protective properties. There are little to no written records of the Dobhar-Chú since its legend has relied heavily on oral storytelling and tradition.

In my image, Dobhar-chú is a local river cleanup volunteer. I asked AI for a few ideas, and went with this one:

Many otters are highly social, so the Dobhar-chú could be found blending into environmental groups as a volunteer for river or beach cleanups, a common community activity in the PNW. It could be overly enthusiastic, always finding strange or valuable things during these cleanups—like ancient relics or rare fish bones. Its ability to remove debris from water at incredible speeds may raise eyebrows, along with its tendency to avoid direct conversation and slip away into the water when no one is looking.
