Trenza del mar esmeralda

Sanderson is known for intricate world-building, but I wonder what specific ideas or myths influenced the creation of this universe and its magic?

The story had plenty of action, but I found myself connecting deeply with Tress’s personal journey. Was that intentional or did it catch others by surprise?

The characters’ relationships felt complex and real, especially when tested. Did the author aim to explore how trust can both build and break bonds?
