About the Voices:

Oliver and Cassandra are AI-generated voices representing different aspects of the author's approach to these subjects. They are not real people but narrative devices created to present distinct perspectives: Oliver focuses on historical precision and documentation, while Cassandra explores patterns and connections across stories and cultures. This dual approach allows for a balanced examination of both factual and interpretive dimensions.
