Thank you for setting and sharing this great anti-king puzzle, LeaVulpina! The whispers lines felt super thematic and it was really elegant how the arrow (in addition having the same shape as the whisper lines!) worked in the end. Superb setting!
___
Response from Lea: Thank you so much! =) I was definitely pleased to find the arrow reduces the grid to two solutions.

Thank you for your reply, Lea! So you added the black Kropki dots only as last disambiguators? I really enjoyed their role in the solve. (If I remember correctly they helped me early on to distinguish between the two polarity groups.)
___
Response from Lea: The bottom-left dot is there for exactly that - to disambiguate the polarity early on. The puzzle is unique without it, but the solve path is... messy at best lol. Weird how much difference one black dot makes.
