A Kingdom This Cursed and Empty

The setting feels so immersive and unique — I wonder if it was inspired by folklore, personal myths, or something else entirely.

The emotional stakes felt high, but I kept wondering how much of the danger was internal versus external. How did others interpret the chemistry between the characters?

The frequent sense of curse and loss was intense, but there were also glimmers of light. I’d love to know what guided those choices in tone.
