Revenge stories are often fairly simply: someone is wronged, and they seek revenge, and while revenge may not be the wisest option it is quite satisfying to see it enacted on someone who deserves it.
This revenge story is much more complicated. It is often hard to determine how human Brunhild truly is. It is often hard to determine whether Siegbert deserves to be brought down, and the colonial aspects put a spin on things that make it even more tangled.
In the end, this is a complex tale of revenge, humanity, grief, and more. The telling of the tale lurches around oddly now and then, but it always feels like a fairy tale, a parable, a warning of sorts, that touches on more than the simple revenge plot it is centered around.
