Κίεραν

ultra-detailed cinematic scene, historical realism, early dawn over a wide river in late Yuan dynasty China. A dense morning fog rises over the surface of the Yangtze River. Emerging from the mist are dozens of enormous multi-decked wooden warships, each with tall tower-like stern structures, resembling siege towers mounted on boats. These "lou chuan" slowly push forward through the fog in formation, silent and imposing. Soldiers in mixed Yuan-Ming transitional armor stand ready on deck, gripping spears and shields. Archers line the upper decks, firelight flickering on their helmets and faces. In the lead ship, a commander in dark lamellar armor and a red cloak stands at the bow — Chen Youliang. He raises his hand calmly as signal. Drums begin to thunder faintly. Wind stirs banners marked with his crest. The camera slowly glides from above, then cuts to close-ups: trembling torchlight, mist dripping from the hull, archers squinting ahead, an old veteran murmuring a silent prayer. The tower-like ship sterns rise like shadows against the mist. The scene ends with a slow pan of the fleet closing in on the distant silhouette of Taiping City. --ar 16:9 --style cinematic --realistic lighting --volumetric fog --motion blur --slow camera
