The setting feels so immersive and layered—did the author start with the world or the characters? I'd love to hear about the creative process behind it.

Their decisions often felt morally gray, which made me wonder how much of that was intentional in exploring complex themes about survival and identity.

It’s such a central part of the story—was that based on real science, or purely fictional? I wonder what led to that particular depiction.
