Child of a Hidden Sea

The maritime setting feels so immersive and unique in a fantasy context. I'm curious what inspired the choice to set much of the story at sea and how it influences the magic system.

The protagonist’s quest to understand her identity really resonated with me, but I wonder if that was intentional or just a happy coincidence.

I loved how playful and vivid the world-building was, but I’m curious whether the author aimed for a lighthearted feel or if it developed naturally during writing.
