My mate that would be so helpful, I’ve been staring at it for so long that it’s hard to gauge pacing etc. Ditto for yours, I love the twin-soul aspect of your antagonist, it reminds me of BOB in Twin Peaks, being horrified at what your shadow self is doing and the moral complexity of that. Plus the integration of German folktales is an interesting creepy angle I haven’t seen explored anywhere else in DG canon :)
