The story's tension often hinges on both strategic battles and emotional moments. I'm curious how the author approached weaving these elements together for a compelling narrative.

The descriptions of the ships, planets, and political landscape were so vivid — was this all mapped out beforehand or developed as the story progressed?

The planet's unique environment and culture added a lot of depth. Wondering whether the setting was based on any real-world influences or entirely imagined.
