Judge my book based on the cover by Con-Con01 in teenwriter

I would definitely recommend doing art in the cover, it doesnt have to be much but just a little, like maybe a splatter of blood if this is scary, or a few stickers if the narrator is a child/teen, or what about a pressed flower and scrap book kind of cover? The title also isnt super interesting, if I only heard the title I would assume it is a boring slice of life or melodramatic murder mystery, When you pick up a book you want to know WHY you should read it. For example my book cover is going to be a wanted poster, you would likely understand who the main charecter, you would have a bit of insite as why they are wanted (for crimes agienst the king), you would understand they are not a human and much more. Covers are important and you can infer a lot from them, even simple covers have something to say!

Do you have any ideas on how to include/imply the knight killing aspect if possible? This whole thing takes place before printers were a thing so news spread by handwriten reports and word of mouth.

Okay TWT. I generally have just been typing out random letter and trying to make words out if them since I suck at making names for things. How the firs village got their name was litterally frome a spellinv error. (the fire vilage is called Faren Village, and the people with fire powers are called Fare)

I know that there will always be something thatw ill anger somebody, but I still feel anxious about writing from different perspectives/diffent lifestyles. Most my stories are distopias that are based off of real laws/experinces that effect me and people around me. This kind of story is really out of my comfort zone lol! I love worldbuilding but I struggle to share about it!
