The Edge of the World

The setting feels so vast and mysterious — I wonder if there's a real-world place or myth that sparked this idea or if it was purely fantastical.

While I loved the world-building, those scenes made me curious whether the author intended a slower pace here to build tension or to deepen character relationships.

The balance between action and diplomacy kept me hooked, but I wonder if that was planned from the beginning or evolved during writing.
