Dimly lit castle library with towering bookshelves, flickering torchlight on leather-bound tomes and scattered parchments. Close-up over-the-shoulder shot peering at an open spellbook. Warm amber glow from sconces creates intimate shadows and highlights on pages. Scheming and mysterious mood laced with folly. Knight hunches over a glowing book, fingers tracing runes with sly eager grin. Deep burgundies, aged yellows, and shadowy indigos.
Character appearance reference (MUST match exactly):
- Sir Sage: Portrait of Sir Sage, a lean scholarly man in his early 30s with a slender frame, wire-rimmed spectacles, neatly combed black hair with a receding hairline, sharp aquiline nose, thoughtful green eyes, dressed in lightweight armor overlaid with scholarly robes and a blue sash, clutching a scroll. He poses pensively with a sly half-smile. Soft diffused library light highlighting his features. Background of ancient tomes and maps. Intricate fairy tale book illustration style with fine details and warm hues.
