اللص ذو اللسان الأسود

The setting feels vividly oppressive and immersive. I'm curious what influenced the tone and atmosphere for this fantasy universe.

The main character makes some questionable choices but also shows moments of vulnerability. How did others connect with or judge his actions?

There were moments that made me chuckle despite the grim setting. I wonder whether that contrast was intentional or a natural result of the writing style.
