Reiche Ernte

The Sacred Band has historical roots, but I’m curious how the author chose to reimagine their story within this epic fantasy setting. Did any particular history or myth influence this portrayal?

The strategic discussions and alliances felt so layered—more than just fighting scenes. I wonder if that was a conscious choice to highlight diplomacy over combat at certain points.

Switching perspectives added depth but also complexity. I’d love to know what led to that decision—was it to build a broader world or to deepen character development?
