The Aura

The blend of fantasy and mystery felt seamless, but I'm curious whether the author envisioned this magical system from the start or developed it organically during writing.

I loved the world-building, but I found myself wishing for a bit more tension or action. Was that part of the plan to build atmosphere?

The city felt so vivid and cozy, almost like a character itself. I'm wondering if the author based it on a personal experience or created it purely from imagination.
