Art style: Cinematic Realistic: photorealistic live-action, shallow depth of field, dramatic lighting, film grain. A narrow, windswept mountain gorge surrounded by jagged snowy crags. In the lower left foreground, Varik marches forward into the gale, followed closely by veteran twins Erin and Orin walking shoulder to shoulder with iron discipline. On a high rocky ledge in the upper right background stands the cloaked Wizard, leaning on an ancient carved wooden staff while gazing downward. Wide shot from a low angle looking up along the snowy ascent. A palette of frosted silver, slate grey, mist white, and muted iron tones. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ FINAL STYLE ENFORCEMENT (this is the authoritative rendering directive — it overrides any style wording elsewhere in the prompt): Render this image entirely in "Cinematic Realistic: photorealistic live-action, shallow depth of field, dramatic lighting, film grain" style.

Character appearance reference (MUST match exactly): - Varik: A battle-hardened warrior prince in his early thirties with sharp rugged facial features, piercing slate-gray eyes, dark disheveled hair dusted with frost, and dried blood and ash streaking across his scarred cheek. He wears battered dark iron plate armor layered beneath heavy gray wolf pelts, gripping a worn broadsword with an ornate carved wolf pommel. Standing amidst snow-covered rocky northern barrens under an overcast slate-gray sky, bathed in cold diffuse daylight with subtle rim highlights along his armor. - The Wizard: An elderly mysterious traveler with weathered sun-beaten skin, a long woven silver beard, and intense pale glowing eyes beneath a heavy cowl. He is draped in a coarse, weather-beaten charcoal-grey hooded traveling cloak fastened with a brass clasp, holding a tall twisted oak staff capped with faintly glowing runic carvings. Standing upon a precarious snowy mountain ridge above jagged icy chasms, with swirling snowdrifts caught in cold alpine dawn light behind him. - Erin and Orin: Two broad-shouldered veteran soldiers in their mid-thirties with weathered bearded faces, soot smudges, and grim determined expressions. They wear scarred riveted chainmail under reinforced leather coats, steel arm guards, and carry notched heavy iron broadswords and rounded wooden shields scarred by battle. Marching side by side through a snowy mountain pass, framed against desolate granite peaks under blowing snow and cold pale daylight.
