Ooh, I like that one a lot. My only suggestion would be spacing it out just a bit, it feels somewhat cut up atm. Especially building up before the Vader reveal, it should have more room to breathe imo

Ordinarily I’d agree. But this is TROS we’re trying to fit into, where everything feels like it’s been cut down to the shortest possible run time. I’m aiming for around the same run time as when Rey enters Palpatine’s Wayfinder shrine - which is exactly 1 minute between the door closing on her and her falling back outside of it. Currently, just the vision part of Kylo’s scene is at 1 minutes 11 seconds, which I think matches the circumstances. We don’t want a side story like this to drag the entire plotline to a complete stop.

EDIT: Right, I should also mention that I’m trying to cut around parts where they have voice acting baked in. So the parts that are missing at the beginning are gone mostly for that reason. Although I could see about extending his wandering through the snow a bit at the very start to allow a little build up.
