I’ve been working on a little pixel-art animation of Chaac Kab, the “Realm of Rain”, from my book The Tree of Life.

Chaac Kab is the domain of the Rain God Chaac, a realm built upon drifting clouds and the first of the thirteen levels of heaven. At its heart rises Chaac’s palace, with his vast labyrinth gardens stretching behind it. In the far background lies the House of the Moon, glowing just beyond reach.

The Old Jabiru is an occasional visitor. Can you spot him?
