Art style: Dark Fantasy.
A high-angle establishing shot of the cottage at the break of dawn. The sky is a pale, sickly lavender and gray. The candle on the windowsill has burned down to a blackened stump of wax. The forest edge is quiet and shrouded in a dying mist. The front door of the cottage stands slightly ajar, inviting the cold morning air. The mood is empty, desolate, and cyclical. Dominant colors are pale violet, soft silver, and muted greens.

FINAL STYLE ENFORCEMENT (this is the authoritative rendering directive — it overrides any style wording elsewhere in the prompt):
Render this image entirely in "Dark Fantasy" style. Match the lighting grammar, material response, colour science, level of realism / stylisation, line weight, and shading model typical of "Dark Fantasy". Keep the subject, composition, camera angle, lighting direction, and colour palette from the description above — but EVERY surface, skin, fabric, material, and environmental element must be rendered in the "Dark Fantasy" idiom, not in any other medium.
