Create a premium cinematic dark fantasy illustration in a strict vertical 9:16 composition. A mysterious young witch walks alone through an ancient snow-covered gothic city at twilight. She wears a long weathered black cloak, a pointed but elegant dark hood, layered medieval clothing, worn boots and carries a small crooked wooden staff. Her face is pale, expressive and slightly confused, illuminated by cold moonlight and warm reflections from distant windows. The most important visual element is her enormous independent shadow. The witch walks forward normally, but her shadow does not follow correctly. It stretches impossibly far behind her across the snow-covered street, towering over buildings and becoming a gigantic humanoid silhouette with long arms, flowing hair and enormous distorted proportions. The shadow is clearly trying to catch up with her. One of its hands reaches toward the witch while she continues walking, unaware of its true intention. The shadow is not evil; its body language suggests desperation, as if it is trying to return to its owner. The snowy street is filled with subtle storytelling details: abandoned market stalls, frozen fountains, broken lanterns, old footprints, a toppled statue of a witch, forgotten letters frozen beneath transparent ice and tiny candles burning beside doors. In a cracked shop window, the witch's reflection has no shadow at all, while the enormous shadow outside is visible behind her. Farther down the street, a second shadow belonging to no visible person stands motionless beneath an archway, watching the scene. Near the foreground lies an ancient magical mirror partially buried in snow; its surface shows the witch as she looked years earlier, standing together with the same enormous shadow in perfect harmony. The witch has one hand slightly raised as if she has just begun to sense something behind her. The giant shadow's fingertips are only a few meters away from touching her cloak. The scene should communicate loneliness, mystery and supernatural separation rather than simple horror.
