Quel che nasconde il fiume

The landscape feels so vivid and integral to the story—I'm curious whether the author drew from real places or created this world from imagination.

The pacing felt deliberate, but I kept guessing what would be revealed next. Was this slow reveal intentional to mirror the river's flow?

The mythological layers added richness but also complexity—I'm wondering if incorporating these legends was planned from the start or developed during writing.
