The Zephyr

The world-building feels rich and intricate, and I wonder if it was based on folklore or entirely fictional. How did the author craft such a detailed fae culture?

The story balances enchanting moments with some truly unsettling scenes. Did the darker tone surprise anyone else, or was it expected from the start?

Switching viewpoints added depth but also complexity. I wonder whether this was planned from the beginning or evolved as the story developed.
