extremely detailed underground fantasy city entirely enclosed within a massive cave - the ceiling above vanishes into darkness, studded with faint stalactites and glowing mineral veins - the entire scene is drenched in soft flickering light from hundreds of torches lining crooked paths and hanging from damp wooden beams - central village built over murky swamp water, wood plank walkways elevated above the bog - small, mossy shacks with sagging roofs cluster tightly around the water’s edge, giving an aged, haunted feel - busy miniature port with towering ships moored to crooked docks, their sails tattered, hulls covered in swamp growth - all architecture leans slightly, uneven and warped with time - in the distance and off to the right edge of the frame, a colossal lighthouse towers out of the cavern wall, its rough stone spiraling up with rusted scaffolding and broken windows - the lighthouse emits a strong red glow that bathes the village and parts of the ships in ominous warm tones, clashing with the cold torchlight - fog hovers close to the swamp water, adding haze to the lower half of the image - foreground includes silhouettes of crates, hanging nets, and boat rigging to add depth - painterly dark fantasy style with high texture fidelity and contrast between warm reds and cold shadows, emphasizing mystery and motion through lighting and composition.
