Dark Occult Graphic Novel Page

Goal: Create a dark graphic-novel comic page in Russian about how cinematic black-magic scenes look epic, while real occult work feels mundane and unpleasant.

Canvas: Vertical comic page, approximately 4:5 aspect ratio, with thick black gutters and a thin black outer border. Use gritty seinen manga / European graphic novel rendering, muted browns, charcoal blacks, sickly candlelight, storm-blue lightning, heavy crosshatching, worn paper texture, cinematic horror mood.

Layout: Use exactly 10 panels. Row 1 has 2 panels: a wide left panel showing an epic ritual scene, and a narrower right panel close-up of a young man watching. Row 2 has 3 equal small panels: bloody hand, lightning, old Latin book. Row 3 has 1 full-width panel: two people sitting at a rustic kitchen table by kerosene lamp. Row 4 has 3 panels: close-up of the contractor, hanging dried herbs, old hand on wooden table. Row 5 has 1 full-width panel: close-up of the young man in shadow, looking disturbed. Include exactly 9 white rectangular narration boxes with black uppercase Russian text, placed near the upper-left area of their respective panels.

Text content: Use these exact caption boxes, in order from top to bottom and left to right: 1) [opening caption] 2) "КРОВЬ," 3) "МОЛНИИ," 4) "ЛАТЫНЬ ЗАДОМ НАПЕРЁД." 5) [reality caption] 6) "И ОТ ТВОЕГО КОНТРАГЕНТА ПАХНЕТ НЕ СЕРОЙ," 7) "А СУШЁНЫМИ ТРАВАМИ" 8) "И СТАРЫМ ДЕРЕВОМ." 9) [final caption]

Subject details: The main character is [main character]. In the epic ritual panel, show a hooded black-robed figure seated before a glowing pentagram circle, arms spread, surrounded by skulls, candles, occult clutter, storm clouds, and jagged lightning. In the realistic kitchen panels, show the same young man seated opposite [contractor] at a rough wooden table, with shelves of jars, old cabinets, a small window showing night outside, a kerosene lamp, a bowl, a teacup, and a jar of red dried contents. The atmosphere should be cramped, damp, and rural rather than glamorous.

Censor/obscuration details: Add soft-edged vertical brown blur blocks obscuring the face of the young man in the top-right panel, the contractor's face in the wide kitchen panel, the contractor close-up in row 4 panel 1, and a large vertical brown blur covering the lower center area across the dried-herbs panel and part of the final bottom panel, as if sensitive details were intentionally blurred.

Panel-by-panel visual list: 1) wide ritual with hooded sorcerer, pentagram, skull, lightning; 2) side close-up of young man's head and shoulder in darkness; 3) bloody fingers dragging across stone with blood drops; 4) forked lightning in a storm sky; 5) aged book page with reversed-looking Latin-like lettering; 6) full-width rustic kitchen conversation under kerosene lamp; 7) contractor close-up with caption and face obscured; 8) bunches of dried herbs hanging above jars, partly obscured by blur; 9) wrinkled old hand resting on a wood tabletop; 10) wide close-up of the young man in shadow, tense and frightened.

Constraints: Keep the page readable as a single comic page, maintain thick black gutters, use no speech balloons, no extra captions beyond the 9 listed, no modern objects, no watermark, no clean digital cartoon style.
