# Scene prompt - Course VII: the image supply chain (registry -> mirror -> node; tag vs digest)
Delivery arc scene B. Six parts; the two seal plates must read as GHOST vs ENGRAVED -
that contrast carries the whole thesis. The image cube is Course I's stack in tight
formation (visual callback).

Dark technical exploded-view illustration in a cinematic sci-fi engineering style.
Solid near-black deep void background, hex #070b14 - completely clean: no stars, no grid,
no texture, no particles behind or around the objects. Matte dark metal-and-glass surfaces
with glowing neon edge lighting: primary cyan #3fbaf5, secondary magenta #e879f9 accents,
cool white rim highlights. Camera: fixed 30-degree isometric angle, subject perfectly
centered with generous empty margins on all sides. Even studio lighting, no vignette,
no lens flare, no depth-of-field blur. ABSOLUTELY NO text, no letters, no numbers, no
words, no code, no glyphs, no labels, no arrows, no callout lines, no UI elements
anywhere in the image - every surface marking must be an abstract geometric pattern
only. Every component is fully separated from its neighbours by generous gaps of pure
void - nothing touching, nothing overlapping, and no beams, cables, or connectors
spanning between the separated parts.
The subject: a left-to-right journey of four machines floating alone in void, with two
contrasting plates floating above the journey.
First, far left: a compact stack of four thin square slabs in tight vertical formation
with narrow void gaps - dark metal, cyan edge seams, one faint magenta accent slab -
reading as one shipped unit.
Second: a tall slender registry tower - dark metal with vertical ranks of small
recessed cells, each cell holding a faint cool white-cyan glow, an archive of many
sealed compartments.
Third: a squat wide way-station block - heavy, low, cache-like, with a broad warm cyan
glowing intake recess on its upstream face and thick armoured sides.
Fourth, far right: a dark cluster core - a compact commanding block with a strong cyan
glowing seam, the destination of the journey.
Above the journey, two flat plates floating side by side with clear void between them:
the left plate a GHOST - semi-transparent frosted glass, edges softly dissolving, a
faint magenta ribbon motif barely visible on its face; the right plate ENGRAVED - dense
dark crystal, crisp hard edges, a deep precise geometric seal pattern cut into its face
glowing steady cyan.

## Build-side notes (not part of the prompt)
- **Slice plan:** 6 polygons - image stack, registry tower, mirror way-station, cluster
core, ghost plate (tag), engraved plate (digest). Collapse draws the journey into the
mirror block (everything local); the two plates collapse toward each other but never
merge. Clamp at hero.
- **Legend mapping:** image stack "Course I's layers, shipped" / tower "upstream managed
registry (ACR as the worked example)" / way-station "the pull-through mirror (zot) -
the fleet pulls once" / core "the node pulls local" / ghost plate "tag - a promise
that can move" / engraved plate "digest - a fact that cannot".
- **Watermark:** Gemini sparkle bottom-right - strip before slicing (ffmpeg delogo).
