Description
Act 1, forging of the sword
A jagged, angular cave interior serves as a stage set, featuring large rock-like structures and a central opening that reveals a bright, leafy tree. On the left, a person in a short tunic stands on a rocky platform and holds a hanging rope, while a second person with long hair sits on the right near a dark anvil. The monochromatic scene uses sharp lighting to define the rough textures of the cave walls and the background foliage.
