Ancient stone staircase rising from a misty mountain station

A surreal cinematic landscape featuring an enormous ancient stone staircase descending from a lonely mountain cliff directly upward into the night sky. The staircase begins on the ground and continues vertically through thick clouds, disappearing into the stars. At the bottom is a tiny abandoned railway station with a warm glowing lantern, a wooden bench, an old clock, and wet cobblestones. Rain falls heavily around the station. Halfway up the staircase, the rain gradually transforms into snow. Higher above the clouds, the snow disappears and becomes glowing stars. The staircase therefore passes through three different climates: rainy mountain night, snowy clouds, and outer space. A small warm light can be seen at the impossible destination far above. The surrounding mountains are almost completely hidden by mist. Deep blue-black sky, dramatic clouds, wet stone textures, atmospheric fog, cinematic lighting, mysterious dreamlike mood, hyper-realistic 8K.
