Strong rule: style --- Realistic 3D cinematic ---. A small glass skeleton toddler sits on a dusty stone courtyard in ancient Greece, clutching his knee with large watery eyes. Socrates squats nearby, one hand on his chin in a thinking pose, looking down at the child with a philosophical expression. The background features Greek columns and potted plants under bright daylight. The mood is a mix of childhood sadness and adult indifference.
Character appearance reference (MUST match exactly):
- Socrates: An elderly Greek philosopher, Socrates, with a thick, unkempt white beard and a balding head with fringe gray hair. He has deep-set, soulful eyes and a tanned, wrinkled face. He wears a simple, rough-textured tan linen tunic. The setting is ancient Athens with warm, golden-hour sunlight casting long shadows. The style is highly detailed 3D animation with realistic skin textures and cinematic lighting that emphasizes his contemplative expression.
- The Son: A unique character made of polished, transparent glass with a complete, highly detailed white human skeleton visible inside. The character has large, expressive cartoonish eyes. He ages from a toddler to a young man throughout the story, wearing no clothes but maintaining his crystalline, skeletal form. The lighting reflects off his glass surface, creating highlights and refractions. The style is a mix of surrealism and high-end 3D character animation.
