That small red capped figure tucked in the leaves hit me hardest, it turns the whole parade into a ledger where triumph sits in gold above and the cost hides below. My inner number cruncher smiled at that balance then winced at the write off of lives :). Von Werner's shift to sober, grounded power reads like a state audit rather than theater, very ReaListic.. and kind of chilling. The shine is loud but the footnote bleeds' through.
