Art style: Cinematic Realistic.
Under the pale light of the moon, the shadowy figure of a traitor, Ephialtes, points a path upwards through the mountains to a Persian commander. Their faces are lit by a single, flickering torch, casting long, ominous shadows.

FINAL STYLE ENFORCEMENT (this is the authoritative rendering directive — it overrides any style wording elsewhere in the prompt):
Render this image entirely in "Cinematic Realistic" style. Match the lighting grammar, material response, colour science, level of realism / stylisation, line weight, and shading model typical of "Cinematic Realistic".
Keep the subject, composition, camera angle, lighting direction, and colour palette from the description above — but EVERY surface, skin, fabric, material, and environmental element must be rendered in the "Cinematic Realistic" idiom, not in any other medium.
Character appearance reference (MUST match exactly):
- Narrator: Deep, masculine, American English voice. Epic, intense, and emotional, like a classic Hollywood movie trailer narrator.
