The Blood Forest

The way their magic is described makes them so captivating but also dangerous. Did the duality of their nature resonate strongly or did it feel off at any point?

The forest itself feels like a character — I wonder if it was inspired by a real place or a symbolic choice to reflect the story's darker themes.

The magic seems deeply tied to emotion and identity. I'm curious if the author intended this to mirror internal conflicts or if it evolved during writing.
