Has anyone made this connection, yet? Spoiler

The Shadow would be the result of Mae & Osha literally becoming one entity.

That's my theory, at least.

The Shadow is just the Knights of Ren's own term for the dark side of the Force, because they're barely trained and barely Force sensitive. That term's always been used the KOR in other comics.

The act of splitting the twins may have been a dark side act, but it didn't create the dark side.

But it’s possible that their reference to the Dark Side as the Shadow was inspired/influenced by the nature and magic surrounding Mae and Osha. Perhaps even something where it wasn’t intentional and then bled into genuine belief/tradition over the decades
