Strong rule: style --- ghibli style ---. Medium close-up, eye level on the cozy wooden porch. Elara is curled up tightly, asleep, with her face buried comfortably into her folded knees. The warm, golden light from the paper lanterns casts soft, comforting shadows across her relaxed form. The background shows the dark, starry night and the faint white ash falling gently. The atmosphere is deeply secure, restful, and peaceful, dominated by warm amber tones and deep nighttime blues.
Character appearance reference (MUST match exactly):
- Elara: A young girl around 10 years old with expressive, large hazel eyes and messy, chin-length dark brown hair tied with a faded red ribbon. She wears a soot-stained, oversized linen tunic, thick leather gloves, and sturdy boots. Her face has smudges of ash and a warm, sun-kissed complexion. She radiates a quiet, gentle resilience and deep curiosity. The background features lush, oversized prehistoric ferns and glowing amber volcanic rocks. Studio Ghibli anime style, hand-drawn traditional animation aesthetic, soft cinematic lighting, vibrant earthy color palette, magical and nostalgic atmosphere.
