Art style: Ghibli-inspired hand-drawn animation, 1990s rural India, warm kerosene lamp lighting, moody monsoon atmosphere, soft watercolor textures, high detail, 4K. A rustic rural bedroom corner where a father leans forward over a small, melting wax candle. His face is illuminated by the sharp, localized golden light of the flame just before it goes out. The surrounding room is filled with deep, encroaching shadows, with only a faint secondary amber glow in the distance. Medium close-up, low angle. The mood is quiet, conclusive, and deeply restful, featuring stark contrasts of bright gold, deep umber, and pitch black. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ FINAL STYLE ENFORCEMENT (this is the authoritative rendering directive — it overrides any style wording elsewhere in the prompt): Render this image entirely in "Ghibli-inspired hand-drawn animation, 1990s rural India, warm kerosene lamp lighting, moody monsoon atmosphere, soft watercolor textures, high detail, 4K" style.

Character appearance reference (MUST match exactly): - Rahul: A hardworking Indian man in his mid-30s with a kind, reassuring smile and a slightly tired but content expression. He has short, neat dark hair and a modest mustache. He wears a slightly rain-dampened, loose-fitting button-down shirt in faded light blue over simple trousers, reflecting 1990s rural fashion. The warm, flickering light of a kerosene lamp casts deep, cozy shadows across his face, highlighting his gentle demeanor. Studio Ghibli-inspired aesthetic with soft watercolor textures, cinematic 1990s anime lighting, and a nostalgic, heartwarming atmosphere.
