Yona. La Principessa Scarlatta, Vol. 5

The emotional stakes feel so well-balanced—I'm curious how the pacing of conflict is planned during the storytelling process.

The political landscape and history seem more layered than before. Was a detailed lore bible developed, or did it grow naturally as the story progressed?

Those settings added so much atmosphere and symbolism. I wonder if these choices were planned from the start or came about during revisions.
