Art style: Gritty dark comic illustration. A medium shot of General von Clausewitz, his figure mostly silhouetted against a brilliant red sky. He is standing in a ruined environment, with jagged beams and broken walls around him. A faint yellow light glows from his eyes, and his thick white mustache is visible. He holds a sheathed sword or cane. The sky is filled with thick, rolling red smoke. The lighting is dramatic, with the red sky as the primary source and a faint light on his face. The composition is centered and imposing. Textures include the coarse wool of his coat, the weathered skin of his face, and the rough stone of the ruins. The mood is one of finality and the revelation of the mastermind. His expression is cold and triumphant. The atmosphere is dense and heavy with smoke and history. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ FINAL STYLE ENFORCEMENT (this is the authoritative rendering directive — it overrides any style wording elsewhere in the prompt): Render this image entirely in "Gritty dark comic illustration" style.
