Illusionist

The magic system feels so intricately tied to the characters’ identities. I wonder if the author drew from real-world illusions or created something entirely original.

The story's shift to court politics made me curious whether that was necessary for character development or if it was a personal choice to deepen the world-building.

It seemed like a very personal journey about power and control. I’m interested in whether this was based on any particular philosophy or personal experience.
