Der dunkle Magier

The magic feels both whimsical and meaningful—I'm curious whether it was inspired by real folklore or entirely imagined. How did this influence the story's tone?

The blending of poetic elements with storytelling made the reading experience special, but I wonder if that was challenging to balance or a deliberate choice.

Their interactions seemed very authentic and heartfelt. I'm interested in whether the author drew from personal stories or crafted these relationships from imagination.
