## Prompt

```text
Goal: Create a dark cinematic presentation board for a worldbuilding / image-generation workflow, showing how a consistent fantasy character, locations, and props are built image by image.

Canvas: Wide 4:3 composition on a nearly black background with rounded rectangular cards arranged in a clean grid, soft gaps, subtle shadows, and a muted premium UI feel.

Layout: Use exactly 6 visible cards. Card 1 is a tall text card on the upper left. Card 2 is a large wide character card on the upper right. Cards 3 and 4 are two medium landscape location cards across the middle row. Cards 5 and 6 are two smaller prop cards along the lower left and lower center, with a third lower-right character card partially visible/cropped at the edge if the canvas framing allows. Each image card has a small dark pill label in the top-left corner.

Text content: On the upper-left text card, include small spaced uppercase text “ONE WORLD” near the top. In the lower half, include the headline “Built image by image” and the body text “A character, her locations, and the props she carries — generated separately, holding one look.” Use clean modern sans-serif typography, white headline, muted gray body text.

Visible labeled image cards: 5 fully visible labeled image cards plus 1 text card. The labels are: 2 cards labeled “Character,” 2 cards labeled “Location,” and 2 cards labeled “Prop” if the lower-right crop is included; otherwise keep the main visible set as 1 Character, 2 Location, and 2 Prop. Do not add extra labels.

Subject details: The main character is {character_description}. Place her in a snowy stone castle courtyard, holding a long wooden bow, with cold blue-gray lighting and shallow cinematic depth of field. The locations show {world_setting}: one frozen harbor with Viking-style longships trapped in ice, torchlight, mountains and snow; one fortified snowy military camp with tents, wooden palisades, watchtowers, smoke rising, and stormy clouds. The props show exactly 2 close-up items: a weathered leather pouch or wrist guard marked with pale runic symbols and small bones, and a row of antler or horn pieces in snow with blurred background.

Visual style: Photorealistic cinematic dark fantasy, desaturated blue-gray winter palette, falling snow, realistic textures, high detail, moody natural lighting, consistent medieval wardrobe and materials across all cards. Rounded card corners, elegant spacing, no bright colors.

Constraints: Keep the interface minimal and editorial, like a premium AI image-generation case study. Preserve the exact headline and body copy. Avoid logos, watermarks, charts, anime style, modern objects, or extra UI clutter.
