Dozornyj Otryad (Redvol)

The animals’ personalities felt so distinct and relatable—I'm curious whether this was inspired by specific stories or a creative choice to deepen the fantasy.

The story had such exciting parts, but the middle chapters felt a little slower. Was that intentional to build character depth or setting?

The detailed world-building really drew me in—I'd love to know if the setting was based on any particular place or idea the author had from the start.
