Character appearance reference (MUST match exactly): - Александр: at the grassy edge of a calm lake at dawn — Aleksandr, a 45-year-old amateur fisherman with a wise, calm gaze. Medium build, slightly softened by age, average height. Short dark hair clearly streaked with grey at the temples, and a neat small greying beard framing a weathered, kind face with gentle smile lines around thoughtful eyes. He wears a simple olive-green fishing vest over a grey long-sleeve shirt, practical khaki trousers, and worn waterproof rubber wading boots. In one hand he holds a long, slim, inexpensive hera-style fishing rod; a plain tackle box and a round keep-net rest at his feet. Relaxed, attentive posture, head slightly tilted, studying the still water. Soft morning mist, reeds and distant trees behind him.
