Influences

Bissan has stated in an interview that she enjoyed reading The Incredible Tide and watching its animation adaptation by Miyazaki, Future Boy Conan as a child, and that it has heavily influenced the literary style of Μυρτισα II and subsequently Veilchen. Her artistic style is a unique mix between surrealism and cartoon with a much more detailed and elaborate environment settings and fashion. She stats that "whenever I create fantasy work, I would like to create what I like to call a 'believable-fantasy scenario', not the unbelievable farfetched kind"

One notable feature of the comic is the blending of fantasy elements from many different cultural traditions, especially from the Phoenician, Chinese and indigenous peoples of the Americas, while keeping close to reality. Veilchen in particular, there is a strong reference famous folktales based on Old French folklore, such as Little Red Riding Hood
