## Prompt

```text
Create a vertical dark romantic fantasy portrait inspired by Dream of the Red Chamber, showing {character_name} as a fragile ethereal woman reclining against a cracked charcoal-gray stone wall. Her face should be softly obscured or turned into shadow for anonymity, with long loose {hair_color} hair spilling around her shoulders and decorated on the left side with delicate pale blossoms, pearl drops, and thin silver chains. She wears a translucent layered ancient Chinese gauze robe in misty gray and faded lavender, with embroidered floral details and sheer sleeves; one pale hand rests gently over her lower chest. From the center of her chest, depict a glowing crimson Jiangzhu grass / red berry vine piercing outward through the fabric, with red leaves, tiny berries, and pink-red light radiating through the ribcage area, suggesting repayment through tears and fate. Add one thin unbroken red thread arcing from the glowing chest across the right side of the image. The environment is moody, desaturated, smoky, and painterly, with scattered petals, faint handwritten Chinese calligraphy on the wall, soft dust motes, and a single lit red candle on a small black wall sconce in the upper right. Include exactly four floating glowing red pearl ornaments near the upper center-right, plus small ember-like light specks. Add elegant cursive signature text {signature_text} faintly at the top and again near the bottom, and add subtle vertical side watermark text repeating along both edges with small heart icons, reading {watermark_text}. Overall style: gothic Chinese romanticism, melancholic, cinematic low light, muted black-gray-brown palette with crimson accents, highly detailed fabric texture, soft bloom, fine-art digital painting, 2:3 portrait composition, no modern clothing, no bright daylight, no extra characters.
