{"prompt":"An epic wide shot captures a colossal, multi-tiered Namekian-Viking engineering complex carved deep within a mountain of rich, reddish-brown iron ore. The cavernous space is illuminated by the molten glow of massive forges, glinting metal, and numerous flickering torches that cast dramatic, long shadows. Muscular, green-skinned Namekian-Viking engineers, with sharp facial features, prominent pointed ears, and determined expressions, are actively engaged in various tasks. They are clad in rugged fur cloaks, intricate leather armor reinforced with metallic belts, and impressive Viking helmets. In the foreground, a seasoned Namekian mentor, with a more ornate helmet and weathered face, points to complex rune-etched schematic scrolls, explaining the intricate workings of a colossal, steam-powered mining machine to a group of eager young apprentices. These younger Namekian-Vikings, equally muscular and dressed, intently study the diagrams, some holding heavy, specialized tools. In the mid-ground, sparks shower vividly from a distant welding station where a powerful Namekian-Viking boilermaker, wearing a protective, visor-like helmet, fuses massive metal plates with an arc of brilliant light. Another Namekian-Viking fitter meticulously works on a large, intricate engine, surrounded by gears and pistons, while nearby, an auto-electrician skillfully connects glowing crystal conduits. The atmosphere is intensely determined, industrious, and hopeful, reflecting a profound commitment to learning and building a sustainable future. The cinematic lighting blends the deep, cool tones of the raw rock with the fiery orange and red hues of the forge, the intense white light of welding, and the warm, golden glow emanating from the central workshop areas, all highlighting the Namekian-Vikings' focused dedication.
