Art style: Ghibli-inspired 2D animation, 90s rural India, monsoon season, lush green landscapes, warm interior lighting, nostalgic atmosphere, soft watercolor textures.. Wide shot, eye level. Viewed from a dark, wet, and lush green Japanese garden, looking through an open sliding door into a traditional room. Rain pours down in the foreground garden. Inside the room, a warm, bright orange fire burns in the sunken hearth. Tatsu's dark silhouette sits peacefully beside the glowing fire. The contrast is striking: cool, wet, blue-green exterior versus warm, cozy, orange interior. The mood is deeply atmospheric, tranquil, and sheltered. Dominant palette of deep rain blue, lush moss green, and radiant firelight orange. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ FINAL STYLE ENFORCEMENT (this is the authoritative rendering directive — it overrides any style wording elsewhere in the prompt): Render this image entirely in "Ghibli-inspired 2D animation, 90s rural India, monsoon season, lush green landscapes, warm interior lighting, nostalgic atmosphere, soft watercolor textures." style.

Character appearance reference (MUST match exactly): - Tatsu: An elderly Japanese woman in her early 70s with deep, graceful wrinkles and a calm, peaceful expression. She has grey hair styled in a traditional shimada bun with a wooden kanzashi hairpin. She wears a faded dark indigo hanten vest over a white cotton kimono. Her hands are weathered but steady, showing decades of practiced skill. She sits in a traditional wooden machiya house near a warm, glowing irori hearth. The lighting is a mix of warm amber firelight and cool grey, rainy dawn light coming through paper shoji screens. She exudes an aura of complete domestic peace, quiet resilience, and profound maternal warmth.
