Art style: DreamWorks-inspired. The Hampstead House library, night, warm-yellow palette, composed VERTICALLY for 9:16: LORD EDWARD'S BODY sprawled on its back in the FOREGROUND-LOWER of the frame on a red Persian carpet, expensive suit, foam at the lips, one hand outstretched near a shattered crystal decanter with glinting shards and a dark liquor stain soaking the weave; MR. GRACE (severe butler, black frock coat, gaunt cold face) standing HIGHER and DEEPER in the frame, upright over the body, watching. Floor-to-ceiling oak bookshelves, a green-shaded reading desk lamp, a leaded window with dark drapes. EVELYN (chestnut hair, green eyes, freckles, grey maid's dress) at the doorway threshold and crouched over the body. LADY ADELAIDE (in a mourning veil and a wedding ring visible on her hand, hair loose) strains toward the body, a bride-widow. Warm amber-yellow, deep red carpet, brass gold, blue-black shadow, glass-glint white. Upright vertical 9:16. Forensic dread, cold menace against raw grief, cinematic period drama. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ FINAL STYLE ENFORCEMENT (this is the authoritative rendering directive — it overrides any style wording elsewhere in the prompt): Render this image in the following art style: Dynamic stylized 3D animation, confident expressive characters, playful attitude, bold facial expressions, cinematic lighting, lively energetic composition.
