Petals on the Wind (Volume # 1)

The relationships are so intense and layered—I'm curious whether this was based on personal experiences or purely fictional choices. How did this shape the emotional depth?

The setting and mood really amplified the horror elements, but I wonder if the gothic tone was always part of the plan or evolved during writing.

The book dives deep into dark emotional territory—I'm interested in what motivated these themes and how they reflect on real-life struggles.
