Art style: Modern 2D Webcomic.
A bare, tense empty room at the base of the staircase on the first glowing step, cracked concrete walls and a single flickering overhead light. Medium close-up at eye level on the lone stickman figure holding an upside-down open wallet, shaking it as nothing falls out. Harsh cold overhead light casts a stark shadow beneath him, corners of the room swallowed in darkness. Stressed, anxious, claustrophobic mood. Dominant palette of desaturated gray, cold blue, and a faint sickly white glare. The stickman's shoulders slump, head lowered, body tense with visible strain and worry.
