Strong rule: style --- Studio Ghibli art style, lush watercolor backgrounds, warm golden hour lighting, cozy cottagecore aesthetic, high detail, soft cinematic glow, 4K ---. A rustic wooden bedside table holding a single, thick, melting white beeswax candle. A woman is visible near the flame, and the candle has just been blown out, with a delicate, twisting wisp of white smoke curling upward into the dark room. Close-up shot, shallow depth of field focusing strictly on the candle wick and smoke. The lighting is extremely low, transitioning from the warm memory of the flame to the soft, deep shadows of the night. The mood is final, serene, and deeply quiet.
Character appearance reference (MUST match exactly):
- Elara: A serene young woman in her mid-20s with fair porcelain skin, a gentle dusting of freckles, and long, wavy chestnut hair softly tied back. She wears a chunky, oversized cream-colored knit sweater over a vintage plaid flannel, paired with thick wool socks. Her expression is calm, thoughtful, and contented. Standing inside a rustic, dimly lit wooden cabin with a roaring stone fireplace. Warm golden hour lighting blending with the amber glow of the hearth, casting soft, cozy shadows. Studio Ghibli art style, high detail, lush watercolor textures, cozy cottagecore aesthetic, soft cinematic glow, 4K resolution.
