STYLE: hand-painted 2D Slavic folk-art animation — Bilibin / lubok / Orthodox-icon sensibility. Bold decorative ink outlines with visible line-weight variation, flat matte gouache color fills (poster-flat, minimal gradients), ornamental folk pattern work, strong readable silhouettes. Flat painted, posterized light — NO photoreal 3D shading, NO gloss. Vertical storyboard frame, high emotional readability. Match the FLAT decorative folk-art look of the attached character sheets (The Devil + Artyom + Misha + Igor + Kirill + Lastochka): same bold ink linework, flat gouache fills, lubok / icon flatness, ornament. Keep every character exactly on-model — same face, hair, proportions, costume, ornament. ATTACHMENT ORDER: 1 — The Devil «The Unmaker of Worlds»: long GOAT-LIKE SKULL, tall CURLING RAM HORNS with ring motifs, black smoke-flame mane, soot-black skin cracked with ember lines, tattered CRIMSON-AND-BLACK caftan with chains, head low on a SHORT THICK bull-like neck. 2 — Artyom «Serdtse»: shoulder-length dark-blond curtain hair, BROWN leather armor, MOSS-GREEN cloak. 3 — Misha «The Eye»: LARGE CLEAR-FRAMED GLASSES, GREY-BLUE armor, SLATE-BLUE hooded cape. 4 — Igor «Klinok»: SHORT light-brown SPIKY hair, BLACK leather armor, RED SASH. 5 — Kirill «Tvyordaya Ruka»: round young face, heavy dark-brown fringe, OCHRE armor, DARK-RED scarf-hood. 6 — Lastochka «the Swallow»: ash-blonde low braid, cream embroidered shirt, DARK-RED sarafan, green sash. 7 — the PREVIOUS VERSION of this frame: copy its composition, poses, placement of the five friends, the demon's pose and the colors exactly. The ONLY thing to change is the naginata. FULL-BLEED: fill the entire frame edge to edge. NO ornamental border, NO frame, NO margins. TEXT: no text or lettering in the image. THE TWO WEAPONS IN THE DEMON'S EYES — the most important detail. The Devil FACES THE VIEWER, so his RIGHT eye is on the VIEWER'S LEFT and his LEFT eye is on the VIEWER'S RIGHT. — FRAME LEFT (the demon's RIGHT eye): Artyom's NAGINATA, which has ONE blade only. That single curved blade is driven BLADE-FIRST all the way into the eye and is hidden inside the socket. Only the small round guard shows at the eye. From there the long red-brown wrapped wooden pole runs out diagonally up and to the LEFT, past the horn, with red ribbons tied near the guard. The FAR END of the pole is a plain blunt butt with a small round iron cap. There is NO blade, NO hook, NO spike and NO edge at the far end: the outer end is only bare wood and a cap. The weapon looks like a long staff stuck in the eye. — FRAME RIGHT (the demon's LEFT eye): Misha's SWORD, a plain STRAIGHT double-edged European-style arming sword. The blade is buried in the eye. Outside the eye you see a simple straight iron CROSSGUARD, a short brown leather-wrapped grip and a ROUND iron pommel, pointing diagonally up and to the RIGHT. It is NOT a katana: no curve, no round tsuba. SCENE: «Go Home»: The upper half of the frame is the Devil «The Unmaker of Worlds», seen from the chest up and facing us, with Artyom's naginata in the eye on the left of the frame and Misha's sword in the eye on the right. He is swelling from inside with the crystal of destruction he swallowed: crimson light bursts through the ember cracks of his soot-black skin, his chest glows and his jaws gape in a roar. His legs are out of frame. In the lower half is the teal rune circle on the stones. Inside it the five friends are dissolving into columns of teal light, feet first and rising, all TURNED TOWARD the demon and shouting up at him. Igor «Klinok» stands in the center with his fist raised. Misha «The Eye» and Kirill «Tvyordaya Ruka» shout beside him. Artyom «Serdtse» holds Lastochka «the Swallow» close with one arm around her, and she presses against his chest while looking up. No one holds a weapon. Crimson and ember-red above, cool teal below. Mood: going home, and leaving the monster to burn. NEGATIVE: no ornamental frame, no border, no margins, no 3D rendered depth, no photoreal skin, no gloss, no realistic render, no Latin text, no realistic gore, no double-bladed naginata, no blade on the far end of the pole, no second blade, no glaive head outside the eye, no scythe, no hook, no katana in the demon's eye, no curved sword in the eye, no swapped sides, no weapons in the heroes' hands, no extra people, no extra limbs, no long neck.
