Strong rule: style --- Ghibli-style 2D animation, autumn forest library, warm amber lighting, soft dust motes in sunbeams, rich orange and gold color palette, cozy aesthetic, 4K. ---. A medium shot of Elara at a heavy oak table covered in a light dusting of white flour. She is kneading a ball of pale dough with both hands. Her sleeves are rolled up, and her movements are rhythmic. A wooden rolling pin and a bowl of apples sit nearby. The lighting is warm and domestic, with soft shadows. The mood is peaceful and tactile.
Character appearance reference (MUST match exactly):
- Elara: A young woman in her early 20s with a gentle, oval face, large expressive hazel eyes, and bobbed chestnut hair tucked behind her ears. She wears a chunky cream-colored turtleneck sweater under a forest green pinafore dress. Her expression is one of peaceful wonder. She is seen inside a cozy, dimly lit library carved into a massive tree root, surrounded by thousands of ancient books. The lighting is warm and amber, provided by flickering candles and a soft glow from a nearby hearth. Ghibli-inspired 2D animation style with rich textures and soft, painterly backgrounds. Overall vibe is studious and serene.
