The Cost of Survival

The mix of magic and sci-fi creates a unique universe, but I'm curious if the author envisioned this mashup from the start or evolved it during writing.

Some decisions seemed almost impossible to make, which made me wonder how much of that was planned versus organic to the characters' growth.

The story balances action and quieter moments well, but I'm curious whether the pacing was planned to keep readers on edge or developed through editing.
