Les héritiers de l'empire

The story weaves intense battles with complex diplomacy — I wonder if that was challenging to pace or if it evolved naturally during writing.

The characters' choices seemed driven by personal and political stakes, making me think about what I would do in their place. Am I the only one curious about their backstories?

The world-building feels incredibly immersive, and I’m curious whether it was planned from the start or developed as the story progressed.
