Les Jardins de la lune

The story weaves through multiple characters and timelines, which can be overwhelming but rich. I wonder what inspired the decision to tell it this way and how much was mapped out beforehand.

Some parts felt dense with lore and politics, making it a bit tough to stay engaged. Was this intentional to build the world or just a natural part of the story flow?

Many characters operate in shades of grey, which makes their choices hard to predict. Did anyone else feel conflicted about who to root for?
