Art style: Horror. A corridor of towering gnarled cedars at night, lit only by Elena's white headlamp beam. Elena is mid-stride in a medium-wide shot, left of frame, with the brass compass in her left palm on its neck cord. A white fog bank sits in the underbrush behind her. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ FINAL STYLE ENFORCEMENT (this is the authoritative rendering directive — it overrides any style wording elsewhere in the prompt): Render this image in the following art style: photorealistic live-action cinema — indistinguishable from real film footage shot on a high-end digital cinema camera. True-to-life skin with natural pores and subsurface detail, real fabric weave and material response, natural light behaviour with soft falloff and physically accurate shadows, shallow cinematic depth of field, restrained modern colour grade. NOT illustration, NOT anime, NOT a 3D cartoon render. Every surface, skin, fabric, material, and environmental element must be rendered in this idiom. Reference images context (match the visual style and elements from these): - Brass pocket compass on neck cord (prop): A modern circular brass pocket compass with a glass face and a black nylon lanyard neck cord. The brass is slightly tarnished but the design is contemporary. High-detail studio shot on a plain white background, square format. - White granite boundary marker stone (prop): A rectangular white granite boundary marker stone pillar, weathered with patches of green lichen and grey mineral streaks. A simple, heavy geometric block. High-detail 3D asset view on a neutral grey background, square format. - Red emergency road flare (prop): A modern cylindrical red emergency road flare with a textured plastic cap. The body is bright red wax-coated cardboard with printed safety instructions. High-detail product photography on a white background, square format. WARDROBE LOCK — authoritative. Render each character in EXACTLY this outfit, matching their attached reference image. This OVERRIDES any clothing, fabric, texture or colour word describing a character anywhere else in this prompt — do NOT invent other garments: - ELENA: Adult woman, lean athletic runner's build, olive skin with visible pores and a sweat sheen, dark brown hair in a wet braid, sharp cheekbones, scraped knuckles. Rain-slicked teal trail running jacket, black tights, muddy grey trail shoes, black tactical chest rig with one red road flare in a front loop, white LED headlamp on her forehead, small brass compass on a cord around her neck. Side-lit, mid-stride pose.
