Winter Born

The setting and lore feel so immersive — I wonder if the author drew from existing folklore or created something entirely new. What inspired this unique take?

The sacrifices and inner struggles felt very real, but I’m curious if that was intentional or just how the story naturally unfolded. How did others connect with the characters' dilemmas?

The supernatural powers add a layer of complexity, but the romance feels so genuine. I wonder if the story was always meant to focus equally on both or if that developed during writing.
