Gothic Saint Pilgrimage Cathedral

Prompt

Create a vertical dark fantasy sacred pilgrimage scene in an impossibly vast Gothic cathedral-city carved into a mountainside, with no modern elements. The foreground shows the backs of exactly 5 prominent worshippers walking willingly forward: 2 in cream hooded robes with gold cross embroidery, 1 central figure in a black cloak, 1 in a deep red robe with gold embroidery, and 1 partially visible dark-clothed figure; their heads are slightly out of focus for cinematic depth. Beyond them, an enormous stone saint statue stands on a pedestal at lower left, holding a tall cross staff, facing toward the monumental architecture. The setting is filled with countless lit candles, golden braziers, incense haze, and solemn ceremonial banners. Use exactly 4 clearly visible tall crimson hanging banners with gold sun-cross emblems: 1 large banner on the far left edge, 1 suspended from the upper viaduct near center-left, 1 suspended from the upper viaduct near center-right, and 1 freestanding processional banner in the lower center foreground. Architecture: towering pale marble Gothic bridges and aqueduct-like arches stacked in layers, needle spires, flying buttresses, ornate cathedral towers, narrow cypress trees, tiny silhouetted pilgrims lining the bridge parapets as scale references, and waterfalls pouring down the right side and through the terraces. The central upper background should feel like a colossal holy complex receding into mist, as if the sacred city itself has opened a passage for the faithful. Lighting should be warm dawn or sunset, with god rays through dramatic clouds, glowing candlelight, white-gold mist, and high contrast between sacred radiance and ominous scale. Style: ultra-detailed cinematic fantasy concept art, photorealistic painterly rendering, vertical 9:16 composition, epic scale, solemn and unsettling religious atmosphere, intricate stone carvings, volumetric fog, shallow depth of field in the nearest crowd, no text, no watermark.
