Art style: Dark Fantasy. A wide shot of a crumbling ancient arena nestled within the ruins of a gothic castle under a heavy, indigo twilight sky. Broken stone pillars and arched entryways surround a cracked flagstone floor where faint magical mist swirls in the air. The atmosphere is tense and atmospheric, with the cold moonlight clashing against distant flickers of orange light. Muted greys and deep blues dominate the environment. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ FINAL STYLE ENFORCEMENT (this is the authoritative rendering directive — it overrides any style wording elsewhere in the prompt): Render this image entirely in "Dark Fantasy" style. Match the lighting grammar, material response, colour science, level of realism / stylisation, line weight, and shading model typical of "Dark Fantasy". 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 "Dark Fantasy" idiom, not in any other medium. Character appearance reference (MUST match exactly): - Arkan: A powerful mage in his late twenties with wild, spiked crimson hair and glowing amber eyes. He has a rugged build and an athletic posture. He wears a heavy, layered robe in deep scarlet and burnt orange with gold embroidery and leather bracers. His expression is one of impulsive confidence. He is standing in a gloomy, ancient stone arena under a dark, overcast sky. Faint embers and sparks drift around him in the air. - Selena: A serene mage in her mid-twenties with long, flowing silver hair that has a faint blue tint. She has calm, pale blue eyes and a graceful, composed stature. She wears an elegant, structured gown of navy and frost-blue fabric with silver filigree and a high collar. Her expression is focused and tranquil. She stands in a shadowed castle courtyard where frost begins to creep across the stone floor. A soft, ethereal blue light emanates from her surroundings.
