Inside a dim, medieval stone hall, an elderly bard stands beside a wooden table illuminated by warm candlelight. The walls around him rise into tall Gothic arches made of weathered gray stone, their surfaces rough and textured with age. Hanging lanterns and small metal fixtures cling to the walls, while shadows pool in the curved recesses of the architecture. The bard is an older man with a full white beard and short white hair, his expression calm and absorbed as he plays a lute-like instrument. He wears layered travel-worn clothing in muted earth tones: a long blue-gray tunic beneath a brown leather shoulder piece and cloak-like garments draped around his body. His hands cradle the instrument with familiarity, one hand pressing the strings along the neck while the other gently plucks near the soundhole. The instrument itself is warm-toned wood with a rounded body and a decorative ring around the soundhole. The polished surface reflects the golden glow from nearby candles. The bard’s posture is slightly bent forward, absorbed in the music as though performing for a quiet room or perhaps only for the night itself. To his right sits a rustic wooden table holding a bottle of wine, a glass partially filled with dark red liquid, a small loaf of bread, and several lit candles melting slowly in their holders. Wax drips down the sides, pooling softly on the tabletop. A wooden barrel rests beneath the table, and a simple stool stands nearby.
