## Prompt

```text
Create a vertical retro manga-style science-fiction illustration in a delicate hand-inked line art look with muted screen-print colors. Show {character_count} young anime girls riding in a small boxy open-top orange utility car through a dusty orange desert. The girl driving on the left has long dark navy-black hair in a side braid, serious eyes, and a pale work-robe outfit with a small chest patch reading “5”; the passenger on the right has short messy white-blond hair tied low, looks off to the right, wears a matching pale robe with a patch reading “4.8,” and holds one plush beige rabbit with floppy ears. The car has two round headlights, a red front grille, red wheel rims, simple angular panels, and a curling dust trail behind it on a winding pale road. The landscape is an alien radio-telescope desert: include exactly 14 visible satellite dish elements total, counted as 1 huge vine-covered dish dominating the left foreground, 1 partial dish cut off at the far left edge, 1 medium upright dish in the middle distance, 1 small dish just behind it, 3 tiny horizon dishes to the right of center, 1 large upright dish at the right background, 1 tiny far-right horizon dish, and 5 damaged or tilted dish fragments scattered in the foreground and midground. Above the turquoise sky, place an inverted white futuristic city skyline hanging upside down from the top edge, with dense rectilinear towers and antenna-like spires. Add exactly 2 pale cream suns/moons in the sky. Use a warm peach-orange ground, teal-blue sky, cream highlights, fine blue-gray ink outlines, subtle paper grain, sparse rocks and scrub plants, a dreamy quiet atmosphere, and a composition reminiscent of a 1980s/1990s Japanese sci-fi manga cover. No extra text besides the two chest labels “5” and “4.8,” no watermark, no photorealism.
