The Last Storm

The world feels rich with both mythical elements, and I'm curious how the author decided to balance these fantastical creatures within the romance arc.

The enemies-to-lovers trope usually takes time to develop, but here it seemed to shift rapidly. Was that intentional to heighten the tension or a pacing choice?

The political intrigue added depth to the fantasy world, and I wonder if it was mapped out in detail beforehand or evolved during writing.
