Art style: Dark Comic.
A wide shot from the soldier's perspective, looking out over the silent jungle. The trees are tall and gnarled, their branches like reaching claws. The orange light of the volcanoes is fading, replaced by deep, murky shadows. The ash falls silently, covering everything in a grey shroud. The mood is desolate and frightening.

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:
dark graphic-novel illustration — gritty comic book art style, heavy black inking, bold outlines, detailed cross-hatching and dramatic shading. Exaggerated character features, intense expressions, deep wrinkles, highly defined musculature. High contrast lighting. Desaturated grim background colors (grays, browns) with stark contrasting pop-color elements. Satirical and edgy atmosphere, masterpiece comic art.
Every surface, skin, fabric, material, and environmental element must be rendered in this idiom.
