Трикстер, Гермес, Джокер

The way fantasy intertwines with the protagonist's journey felt so seamless. I wonder if the author drew from personal experiences or literary influences to craft this unique world.

I was really absorbed in the beginning, but the middle felt a bit more introspective and slow. Was that intentional to deepen the character development?

The blend of magical elements with real-world struggles made it feel fresh, but I'm curious how others see its place within the genre of self-exploration.
