## Source Basis

- `slides/slides.md`: `S-15`, Section C, "Road continues with no clear destination.", style module `A`.
- `visual-system/style/style-prompt-master.md`: Global Style Kernel and Module A.
- `visual-system/characters/character-reference-registry.md`: distant/back walking reference selection.
- `gpt-image-2` Skill files read: `SKILL.md`, `references/prompt-writing.md`, `references/scenes-and-illustrations/concept-scene.md`, `references/scenes-and-illustrations/minimalist-mood-scene.md`.

## Slide Function

Show the road continuing beyond the traveler's certainty. This is not an arrival image and not a beautiful scenic break; it is a continuation image.

## First Read

Road/world before person. The viewer should first read a long muddy road disappearing into cold open terrain, then notice the traveler only as a small moving coordinate.

## Risk Class

- `distant human`.
- Identity matters through coat, backpack, posture, and walking direction, not face detail.

## Reference Plan

- Style module: A, Landscape-Led Road.
- Active style reference: `projects/2026-06-23-在路上/intake/imgs/A.风景主导型蓝图.png`.
- Character references:
  - `projects/2026-06-23-在路上/visual-system/characters/character-slice-walk-back-v2-from-anchor.png`
  - `projects/2026-06-23-在路上/visual-system/characters/character-anchor-v2-walk-back-reference-crop-tight.png`
- Reference loading: actual images must be loaded into visible generation context. Suggested roles:
  - Image 1: A landscape-led road style/composition reference.
  - Image 2: walking-back full-body character identity/body reference.
  - Image 3: walking-back crop for backpack, coat, and posture continuity.

## Visual Requirements

- 16:9 horizontal cinematic documentary still.
- Cold muddy road, wet ruts, rough earth, sparse terrain, low horizon haze.
- Road continues out of frame or into ambiguous distance with no clear destination marker.
- The traveler is small, upright, moving away or three-quarter back, not centered as a hero.

## Character Handling

- Keep the traveler about 1/12 to 1/8 of frame height.
- Preserve long dark coat, backpack, boots, road-worn posture, and non-hunched upright continuation.
- No readable face is required. Do not invent a new face.

## Composition / Scale

- Landscape dominates at least 80% of the frame.
- Use a long horizontal road path, preferably diagonal or receding into haze.
- Avoid a clean symmetrical poster road.

## Light / Color / Texture

- Cold gray, earth brown, dark khaki, wet blue-gray.
- Documentary grain, damp surface texture, no glossy travel beauty.
- Very limited warmth; if present, it must be incidental and weak.

## Forbidden Drift

No travel advertising, no scenic tourism, no motivational sunrise, no hero backshot, no clean commercial road, no text, no logo, no fantasy portal, no vehicle.

## Acceptance Checklist

- Road/world reads before person.
- Traveler is small and secondary.
- Road has no clear destination.
- A style module is visible.
- Character continuity is based on loaded image references, not text-only identity.
- No review file is produced.
