	Detailed prompt for an image creator: Painterly cinematic establishing shot of Cavern of Echoes, biome 068, subsurface cavern, under K3V amber light at 0.68g. A subterranean biome where the air is thick with mystery and every sound echoes in perfect preservation for hours. The cavern system was formed by a single massive water flow event. The acoustic properties have created a unique evolutionary pressure on local fauna. Terrain recorded as acoustic overload echo cavern. Underground networks stretch for kilometers. Fungal light. Memory-altering spores. Sounds travel wrong. Acoustic Overload is the recorded primary hazard. Acoustic Crystal is the signature resource. Recorded colour palette: cave black, phosphore. The ~~Nightroot Conclave~~ settlement Cavern Settlement is visible, with Acoustic Hollow and Echo Chamber in the same territory. AAA game concept art, faction territory readable in the architecture, no text in the image.
