Conversely, you bring the hammer down too hard and you reach Rowan's Snapping point. Whether that is good or bad for the twins is pretty much a wild card and honestly will probably be based on which player choice pathing you are on based on the rest of the story and likely concluded during the Epilogue: Slave, Overlord, vs. Sabotage.
Do they:
1) Break him like they want to?
2) Lose his willingness to assist them? Or to live completely.
3) Cause him to move forward by starting to rebel in earnest more expeditiously.
It is beyond a reasonable doubt that he is a key asset for the Twins at this point. Every one of their major triumphs was steeped in his involvement regardless of whether he sabotaged it a little bit or not. They have a lot to lose by truly antagonizing Rowan and if they don't realize it at this point post Rasteld they are stupider than I thought.
It would be far more sensible for them to hedge their bets instead of going all in on a poke the Rowan with a punishment stick stratagem. They have done that before in relation to staying their hand with more minor betrayals. Will they do that again on the Werden path? No probably not; I reckon the Twins are thinking like you are and they've already pushed too hard with Dealne / the city-wide rape. Somethings gotta give- and unless you are strictly following the Slave paths in most of narrative arcs- I don't see it ending up in clear a win for the twins.
Rein talking about Hel content is making me less and less excited about my Sub. I don't really see why its so Jarring that he is helping Hel escape- she is a small fish- its not like its a major sabotage of one of their major plans. Its just Rowan with his typical hero act trying to save his student from incredible suffering. Sure she could go tell everyone what was down there- but so could the other 100 or 1000s of characters that are loosely involved with castle Bloodmean.
I was so excited for new Hel content- but if a lot of it is going to be punishment stuff I guess I hope Winter keeps working on Liurial content for a good long time or that Winter disagrees with Rein about what would be valuable in regards to telling Hels story.
