Act as a mystical storyteller with centuries of experience in crafting dark fairy tales. Generate a DALL-E image of an ancient, ornate lantern glowing with an eerie, otherworldly light. The lantern should be intricately designed with [MYTHICAL SYMBOLS] etched into its metal surface, suspended by [CHAIN LINKS MADE OF SHADOW], and resting on a [CRUMBLING STONE PEDESTAL]. Surround the lantern with faint, ghostly whispers in the air, hinting at the dark consequences of its wishes. The atmosphere should be hauntingly beautiful, blending wonder and dread.
