Conclave

The world-building around the clandestine group felt so immersive. I'm curious whether real-world organizations inspired this or if it was purely fictional.

Some characters' actions were so unpredictable and morally complex that I kept questioning my own judgments. Did others find themselves rooting for or against certain characters?

The story kept me hooked without rushing through key moments. I'm interested in whether this balance was deliberate from the start or evolved during writing.
