  "myth_connection": "Library 1.3.2 supplies descent, petition, and a return endangered by a later choice. The chapters move from entering the realm of the dead to recovering people to rewarding their continued survival. The game permits two returned creatures so the relationship can occupy the battlefield together; this is an adaptation rather than a second Eurydice in the source.",
  "narrative_beat": "Descend, retrieve, and preserve long enough to reach the light.",
  "design_note": "Replaces immediate mass theft with a telegraphed but exceptionally large staged recovery. Each chapter offers a response window, and the final reward depends on marked creatures still being present. Two survivors mean four cards and 2 life lost; five mean ten cards and 5 life lost. This preserves the whole draw reward while giving its black card advantage a life price. No Saga reminder text is needed in the image; normal Saga rules apply.",
  "signature_demo": null,
  "counterplay": "Remove the Saga before chapter II, exile the graveyard targets in response, or answer returned creatures before chapter III. Removing the Saga after a chapter has triggered does not counter that chapter. Creatures whose finality counters are removed no longer count toward chapter III.",
  "art_brief": "A spare vertical Greek relief in three connected scenes: a lyre descending, two hands almost meeting, and a narrow opening of daylight. Keep the figures large and the surrounding stone plain.",

## Exact actual prompt

```text
Use case: product-mockup
Asset type: one complete custom Magic: The Gathering card face for Clash.
Render one flat, upright high-resolution 5:7 portrait card with the full black outer border visible.
Input image 1 is FRAME/LAYOUT REFERENCE ONLY: Firja's Retribution, Kaldheim 210, normal printing. Match its normal three-chapter Saga geometry: title and mana at top, pale chapter-text column on LEFT, vertical art panel on RIGHT, and full-width type bar at BOTTOM above footer. Use its white-black multicolor gold frame. No legendary crown or Nyx texture. Replace every word and illustration of the reference. Do not copy its reminder paragraph: this custom Saga has NO reminder text; redistribute left column space to fit its three chapters legibly.
Input image 2 is STYLE REFERENCE ONLY: approved Clash Hades commander. Match the set's sophisticated painterly realism, charcoal/pale stone/muted gold palette, fine readable typography and small lightning-bolt mark. Do not copy its creature frame, crown, Nyx, artwork or any card data.
Typography: Beleren-style title and type lettering, Plantin-style upright serif chapter rules. Strong crisp dark ink on quiet pale panels. The long title must fit in ONE line and clear the three mana glyphs.
Art: A spare vertical Greek relief in three connected scenes: a lyre descending, two hands almost meeting, and a narrow opening of daylight. Keep the figures large and the surrounding stone plain. Restrained ancient sculptural texture with realistic light and painterly depth; no unnecessary background scenes, no letters in the artwork.
CARD DATA, all exact:
Name: The Descent for Eurydice
Mana cost: {2}{W}{B} — exactly THREE circular glyphs in this order: numeral 2 in neutral circle, white sun in pale circle, black skull in charcoal circle. Never print braces or W/B letters.
Type line: Enchantment — Saga
Chapter I: Mill six cards.
Chapter II: Return up to two target creature cards from your graveyard to the battlefield with a finality counter on each of them.
Chapter III: For each creature you control with a finality counter on it, you draw two cards and you lose 1 life.
Display I, II, III only once each as the appropriate gold-edged chapter medallions beside the corresponding rules. Chapter order top to bottom. Do not print "Chapter" labels. Natural line breaks only. Each chapter must remain entirely in the left text column, with all exact words and punctuation.
Rarity: rare, small GOLD lightning-bolt set mark at right end of bottom type bar.
Footer exact: CLASH • CUSTOM • PLAYTEST
Collector identifier in footer: H08
Use the standard small centered rare bottom oval.
No power/toughness badge. No flavor, no Saga reminder, no finality reminder, no other added text, credits or official release identity. Preserve "up to two target", "your graveyard", "each of them", and the entire chapter III especially "you draw two cards and you lose 1 life." Exact text has priority. Do not turn the chapter III life payment into 2 life.
No perspective, tabletop, hands holding card, sleeve, glare, shadows around the card, cropped border, ornate fantasy UI, full bleed art, or text over illustration.

```

## Observed visual QA

Passed full-image visual inspection. Exact title, ordered 2/white-sun/black-skull mana, all three chapters and their complete literal text are present. Chapter III correctly draws two cards and loses 1 life per marked creature. Correct white-black three-chapter Saga layout with left rules, right vertical relief, bottom type bar, gold lightning mark, rare oval, H08 identifier and requested footer. No reminder, flavor or creature badge. Name and text clear their panels. Relief shows lyre, almost-touching hands and daylight in one coherent quiet stone composition.

Output dimensions: 1062 × 1482 pixels.
