## Prompt

```text
A cinematic anime illustration of a mature woman looking into a dark mirror, but her reflection shows her as a young child. The foreground features the tall, mature woman seen from behind in a three-quarter view, with long straight {hair_color} hair, pale skin, and wearing a dark dress adorned with black feather-like accents on the shoulders. She is reaching out to touch the mirror with her right hand. The mirror reflects a young child version of herself with {eye_color} eyes, slightly pointed ears, and a simple white dress with red ribbon bows. The child's hand is pressed against the glass, perfectly aligning with the older woman's hand. The scene has dark, moody, cinematic lighting with a muted, almost sepia-toned color palette, creating high contrast between the pale skin and the dark background. Vertical Japanese text is placed on the left reading {left_text} and on the right reading {right_text}.
