Art style: Dark Comic. An extreme close-up of a man's face from a side profile, with the dark, blurry edge of a shoulder visible just inches behind his back. His lips are parted as if about to speak, and a single tear tracks down his pale cheek. The lighting is harsh and directional, highlighting the contour of his trembling jaw. Deep navy and obsidian tones create a suffocating mood. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ FINAL STYLE ENFORCEMENT (this is the authoritative rendering directive — it overrides any style wording elsewhere in the prompt): Render this image in the following art style: dark graphic-novel illustration — gritty comic book art style, heavy black inking, bold outlines, detailed cross-hatching and dramatic shading. Exaggerated character features, intense expressions, deep wrinkles, highly defined musculature. High contrast lighting. Desaturated grim background colors (grays, browns) with stark contrasting pop-color elements. Satirical and edgy atmosphere, masterpiece comic art. Every surface, skin, fabric, material, and environmental element must be rendered in this idiom. Character appearance reference (MUST match exactly): - Elias: A mid-20s man with a lean, athletic build, featuring short, messy dark brown hair and light stubble on his jawline. He is wearing a heavy, dark olive green canvas field jacket over a charcoal gray hoodie. His face is pale with exhaustion, featuring deep-set, wide hazel eyes that convey intense fear and hyper-vigilance. He is standing in a dark, misty forest at night, with cool, pale moonlight-filtered lighting highlighting his features. His expression is one of mounting panic, with a slight sweat on his brow. The overall vibe is tense and haunted.
