Highlander: El escudo protector

The way the author wove magic into the Highland setting felt natural, but I'm curious if others thought it overshadowed the history or complemented it perfectly.

The backdrop adds so much depth, but I wonder what drew the author to this specific era and how it shaped the characters' journeys.

The romance felt very grounded, but the magic scenes added an exciting layer. Was this balance something planned from the start or developed during writing?
