The Wax Child

The story seamlessly blends real history with fantastical themes, which made me wonder how much was planned from the start versus evolved during writing.

The setting added layers of melancholy and reflection. I'm curious if the historical backdrop changed how others connected emotionally with the story.

The story unfolds at a steady pace that allows for reflection without feeling slow. Wondering if this was a deliberate choice or a natural outcome of the narrative structure.
