Character appearance reference (MUST match exactly):
- Older Elena: A woman in her late 60s with silver-streaked hair tied in a loose, elegant bun. She has soft wrinkles around her eyes that crinkle when she smiles, conveying deep wisdom and kindness. She wears a comfortable, high-quality knit cream cardigan over a simple linen dress. Her expression is one of peaceful reflection. She is seated on a weathered wooden park bench during a vibrant sunset that highlights her gentle features. The background is a soft-focus park with autumn leaves and a shimmering lake, casting a warm glow on her skin.
