Canvas: Widescreen 16:9 image formatted as a 3 x 3 storyboard grid, exactly 9 panels separated by thin white borders. Each panel has a cinematic frame on top and a black caption strip along the bottom with small white production text. Overall palette is cold blue, silver, charcoal, and black, with glowing cyan magic. Visual style: Dark high-fantasy film stills, photoreal cinematic lighting, misty snowy forest, ancient twisted trees with faint blue runes carved into bark, distant jagged mountains, drifting snow, shallow depth of field in close-ups, volumetric moonlight, dramatic atmosphere, no cartoon styling. The magic appears as luminous circular sigils, floating runes, blue particles, and transparent protective barriers. Main characters: A young female apprentice mage named {apprentice_name}, with long dark hair, pale skin, determined expression, wearing layered dark leather-and-cloth robes with a hooded cloak and holding a carved wooden staff topped with a glowing blue crystal. An elderly wizard named {elder_name}, with long white hair, full white beard, weathered face, blue-gray eyes, wearing heavy brown-gray fur and travel robes, holding a walking staff. The threat is {shadow_threat}, moving like a fast dark blur or wave among the trees. Layout and exact panel content: Use exactly 9 numbered storyboard panels. 1. Wide establishing shot: a breathtaking enchanted forest on a snowy mountainside. Ancient glowing trees with silver-blue magical runes curve into their trunks. Lyra practices magic beneath a massive sacred tree while Eldrin watches from a distance. Caption text: "1. Wide establishing shot. A breathtaking enchanted forest on a snowy mountainside.
