Heroic Fantasy: all the stories (17)

Age:
Lyra, a young woman (~20) with a gentle face and determined gaze, kneels and serenely plants three small glowing seeds in dark soil; her teal-green cloak falls in simple folds and a small bronze bell hangs at her neck. To her right the King of the North (~55), with a graying beard and surprised eyes, reaches to place a seed, wearing a thick dark-red cloak with a discreet crest. To her left the Queen of the South (~45), tanned with callused hands, watches emotionally in a practical khaki dress and simple crown. In the foreground a seven-year-old boy with tangled hair watches in wonder, holding a small wooden easel and pointing at the seeds. In the background a thirty-year-old scout woman with a thin cheek scar leans against a tent in light armor with a softened expression. The setting is a grassy clearing between two lines of gray menhirs with colorful tents (red, blue, khaki) in a semicircle and fluttering flags; the ground is scattered with small stones and wild grasses. The scene conveys nascent peace: leaders’ and a villager’s hands united around a small patch of earth in golden morning light, warm atmosphere, calm gestures and emerging smiles. Visual style: rounded simple lines, warm pastel colors, soft shadows, minimal textures, readable welcoming expressions.
