I’ve given this one more try with the image we have. I trimmed the mask back as hard as I could, retracked the movement, and added a smoke effect to match what’s there.
Let me know if the contrast is better?

Nice job MR!
In terms of blending the castle with the rest of the environment, this is the best pass yet! 👍
However, I’m not sure if this is just me, but it seems like the tracking on your second pass was a bit more precise, since closer to the end of this shot the castle seems to become a little floaty. Should be an easy fix though!
Keep up the good work!
