I think the ether thread things are now a little overkill. The magical nature of the house is well beyond player's understanding, I'd rather see more interaction between characters, more family reunions, more trips with rae (or others), more (naughty) dreamwalks...These, instead of more lectures on magic, make the game more interesting. First thread quest is already a bit lengthy, now we have another whole video...
Of course the story needs to end (soon?), but I prefer the previous solution of training MC more, or at least focus more on characters rather than magic.
