La Maîtresse des épices

The way food and magic intertwine in the story feels so unique. I'm curious whether this combination was planned from the start or evolved during writing.

Her balancing act between tradition and change resonated with me, but I wonder if others saw her as more empowered or conflicted.

The magic system feels rooted in cultural lore but also very creative. I'd love to hear about the process behind designing this aspect.
