## Prompt

```text
Create a wide horizontal ukiyo-e inspired mythic landscape illustration in aged woodblock print style, with visible paper grain, muted ink texture, fine black linework, and a dusky palette of indigo mountains, misty gray-blue valleys, faded salmon pink sky, and soft cream highlights. In the center foreground place one young Greek poet or traveler, {character_name}, with curly dark hair, a laurel wreath, a worried backward glance, a red draped cloak over a pale tunic, and a small lyre held at his side. On the left, emerging from shadowy cliffs and mist, show one translucent ghostly woman in flowing white robes with long dark hair, reaching toward him with one hand, ethereal and partially faded into the fog. The scene contains exactly two flying cranes in the upper sky, one large pale sun near the upper right, one red torii gate on a distant mountaintop, and one winding pale stone path climbing from the lower right foreground through misty mountains toward the gate. Frame the upper left and lower left with dark cherry tree branches covered in pink blossoms, with many loose pink petals drifting diagonally across the whole composition. Add exactly two narrow vertical Japanese paper title plaques: one at the upper left reading {left_plaque_text}, and one at the right middle reading {right_plaque_text} with a small red seal below the characters. Blend Japanese ukiyo-e composition with a subtle ancient Greek mythological subject, cinematic but flat-print, melancholic and dreamlike, no modern objects, no photorealism, no extra people, no extra birds, no watermark.
```
