Under a Pole Star

The setting feels almost like a character itself, shaping the story in subtle but powerful ways. I'm curious how much of the environment was inspired by real explorations.

Some chapters delve deeply into characters' thoughts, which added depth but also made me wonder if that was a deliberate choice to build atmosphere.

The sense of isolation is so vivid—I'm intrigued about the creative process behind choosing this setting and how it shapes the narrative.
