De bloeddoorlopen dageraad

The setting feels so authentic—I'm curious whether the historical context was planned from the start or grew organically during writing.

The characters' struggles with justice and guilt seemed amplified by the aftermath of war, making their choices more impactful. How did others interpret their moral conflicts?

The dual focus added depth to the story, but I wonder if this was a deliberate attempt to explore post-war trauma or a natural development of the plot.
