Art style: Cinematic Realistic.
An outdoor execution site with a heavy wooden block. A massive executioner in a black leather mask raises a huge iron axe high above his head. Empress Ki is forced onto her knees, her neck bared, eyes closed in resignation. In the background, Bayan Khutugh watches from a balcony with a cruel smile. The lighting is blindingly bright, high-noon sun. The palette is dominated by the pale wood of the block and the dark iron of the axe.

FINAL STYLE ENFORCEMENT (this is the authoritative rendering directive — it overrides any style wording elsewhere in the prompt):
Render this image entirely in "Cinematic Realistic" style. Match the lighting grammar, material response, colour science, level of realism / stylisation, line weight, and shading model typical of "Cinematic Realistic". Keep the subject, composition, camera angle, lighting direction, and colour palette from the description above — but EVERY surface, skin, fabric, material, and environmental element must be rendered in the "Cinematic Realistic" idiom, not in any other medium.
