Imager's Intrigue

The balance between court politics and the protagonist's magical abilities kept me hooked. I'm curious if this was planned from the start or developed during writing.

The lore and setting are immersive, but I wondered if that slowed the pacing for some readers. Was that intentional to deepen immersion?

The concept of Imagers as both artists and political players is fascinating. I wonder where the inspiration for this unique magic system came from.
