The first part of this epic is very well written, though some mistakes where spaces are left out, the text is very pleasant to read. I love the way you describe everything and I truly feel like you get a sort of idea of what the environment looks like. You set a mood in this short text that is chilly and scary, which comes across very well.

Although, as a lover of details and rich descriptions, I would love to see some more shades of the spectrum. Some words like "ex-wife" seems miss placed in a fantasy like this. Perhaps "former wife" would suit better?

All the luck to You!
