Art style: Ghibli-inspired hand-drawn animation, 1990s rural India, warm kerosene lamp lighting, moody monsoon atmosphere, soft watercolor textures, high detail, 4K. A dimly lit, deeply shadowed bedroom where a mother lies next to her young daughter on a floor mattress. The mother is half-asleep, her eyes closed, but her hand rests gently on the child's back. The very faint, cool moonlight illuminates the subtle contours of their resting forms. Medium close-up, eye level with the mattress. The atmosphere is ancient, deeply peaceful, and profoundly connected, using a very subdued palette of soft charcoal, midnight blue, and faint, warm skin tones. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 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.
