A massive Victorian slaughterhouse entrance with rotating brass gear columns and descending iron press arms. A gaunt man in red suspenders presses his back against a vibrating metal wall. High-angle wide shot showing the scale of the machinery. Amber arc lamps cast long, flickering shadows across the scene. Muted industrial tones of deep gold and pitch black dominate the space.
Character appearance reference (MUST match exactly):
- Elias: A man in his late 40s with a gaunt, hollow-cheeked face and intense, darting watchmaker's eyes. He has messy, sweat-matted dark hair and a thin frame. He wears a white dress shirt soaked with sweat and grime, with bright red suspenders stretched over his shoulders. His hands are calloused and stained with dark machine grease. He carries an air of frantic intelligence and physical exhaustion. The background is a dark, industrial Victorian setting with flickering amber lights. The style is detailed with high contrast between deep shadows and golden highlights.
