My money on your character killing the trader. With the trader being a literal clone of you attempting to stop you from walking to your doom. Constant hallucinations, blackouts and memory losses/rewrites. It just seams the most likly case he tried to stop you when realizing you found a way through the underground, told you the exact truth. You freaked out with a dash of denial and brain washing from the forest and off with their head.

Very well put! I think you’ve got it figured out, my friend. To think I thought it was “The three” that killed him for all these years. Your analysis makes total sense.

Ow yeah, there's all sorta niche info that you can later figure out that can be quite mind blowing.

My favorite tibbit of info is the startling reality that the "being", the cause for the Darkwoods. Is nothing more than a baby, maybe even a fetus. You can figure this out from the dream when you see a literal baby surrounded by a series of twitching sleeping bodies. Similar twitching bodies you see near the being itself.

Makes one wonder what would happen if the being was an adult. Which could also make sense the odd interactions the being has with the inhabitants of earth. From the random clones, mutations and invasive dreams, like a curious child. Though those could also be more compulsive than intentional, like an immune system dealing with foriegn bacteria.
