Art style: Vintage Storybook.
At the towering gates of Mycenae, Heracles emerges carrying the enormous lion carcass over his shoulders while guards recoil in horror. In the midground, King Eurystheus scrambles toward a great bronze storage jar near the palace wall. A wide frontal shot captures the gate architecture, torch stands, and stone courtyard under a storm-dark sky. Firelight from braziers casts hot reflections on bronze while cold daylight lingers above. The mood is victorious yet grotesque, with panic spreading through the royal court. The palette is bronze, storm gray, black, and fire orange.

FINAL STYLE ENFORCEMENT (this is the authoritative rendering directive — it overrides any style wording elsewhere in the prompt):
Render this image entirely in "Vintage Storybook" style. Match the lighting grammar, material response, colour science, level of realism / stylisation, line weight, and shading model typical of "Vintage Storybook". 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 "Vintage Storybook" idiom, not in any other medium.
