A highly photorealistic, cinematic scene inside a grand medieval castle kitchen. Soft shafts of golden light stream through high arched windows, illuminating floating dust and mist in the air. Three semi-transparent ghostly figures — a marmot, a bear, and a chubby Asian man — are preparing a meal together in the ethereal glow. The marmot, radiant and slightly translucent, grinds pepper over a sizzling piece of meat on a rustic counter. The bear, glowing faintly with inner light, tosses a large wooden bowl of salad. The chubby Asian man, also semi-transparent, carefully arranges dishes and silverware on a long oak table. The light passes through their forms, scattering gently like refracted fog, creating a divine, otherworldly aura. Stone walls, copper pans, hanging herbs, candles, and soft shadows — all rendered with ultra-realistic textures and lighting. Photorealistic, cinematic atmosphere, no anime elements.
