Art style: Ghibli-style 2D animation, Victorian greenhouse aesthetic, blizzard outside, warm lantern light inside, lush greenery, 4K, cozy atmosphere. SETTING: A vast, still tropical river at the deepest blue hour, moments before dawn. The water is glassy, dark, and perfectly mirror-smooth, so black it looks like polished obsidian. Heavy milky fog blankets the entire surface, lying low and thick, curling in slow ribbons a few feet above the water. Distant unseen riverbanks are suggested only by faint darker masses of vegetation dissolving into the haze — the vague silhouettes of palm fronds and drooping riverside trees barely readable through the gloom. COMPOSITION & CAMERA: Extreme wide shot on a vertical 9:16 canvas, eye-level with the water surface, camera positioned very low so the horizon line sits high in the upper third, leaving the lower two-thirds to the mirror-black water and drifting fog. Upright framing, no tilt. Deep negative space emphasizes emptiness and scale. LIGHTING: The first faint golden-lavender light seeps horizontally across the far horizon — a thin band of cold milky blue-lavender graduating up into pre-dawn indigo overhead, with the barest hint of warm amber beginning to bleed at the very edge of the horizon. Light is soft, diffuse, and directionless, filtered through fog. No harsh sources, no visible sun yet. MOOD & ATMOSPHERE: Mysterious, meditative, hushed, sacred stillness — the feeling of holding one's breath before a slow awakening. COLORS: Dominant misty indigo, cold teal shadows, milky blue-lavender, deep near-black water, with a whisper of amber and coral just breaking on the horizon. TEXTURES & MATERIALS: Glassy water surface with faint oily sheen catching sky reflection, soft cotton-like density in the fog, the wet matte darkness of distant foliage. DEPTH & LAYERS: Foreground — smooth black water with faint fog tendrils drifting across; midground — thicker rolling banks of low mist; background — the graduated horizon glow and dissolving tree silhouettes. WEATHER & PARTICLES: Heavy river fog, tiny suspended moisture droplets faintly catching the horizon light, an occasional slow curl of vapor lifting off the warmer water. MICRO-DETAILS: Faint concentric ripple far away from an unseen fish, delicate reflections of the lavender horizon smeared on the glassy surface, the softest gradient where water meets mist with no clear seam. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ FINAL STYLE ENFORCEMENT (this is the authoritative rendering directive — it overrides any style wording elsewhere in the prompt): Render this image entirely in "Ghibli-style 2D animation, Victorian greenhouse aesthetic, blizzard outside, warm lantern light inside, lush greenery, 4K, cozy atmosphere" style.
