Art style: Ghibli / Anime-inspired.
Full-length view, the entire figure visible from head to feet, standing upright, figure centered with the setting filling the sides. Alina is a slender girl around nine years old with warm fair skin, round cheeks, and large hopeful hazel eyes that look slightly sad and longing. Her dark chestnut hair is gathered into two loose braids tied with simple cloth ribbons, a few strands loose by her temples. She wears a faded yellow knitted cardigan over a pale blue cotton dress with a small worn collar, patched knee-high socks, and scuffed brown leather lace-up shoes. A small satchel hangs across her shoulder, clutched close, as if carrying everything she owns. She stands on a quiet country road at golden dusk, grassy fields and distant hills behind her, a gentle breeze lifting her hair, expression wistful yet determined as she gazes toward the horizon.
