Section 11 is PL ok. Rhyming verse is a loose description.

Yeah, a fair amount of my prep time is figuring which words to butcher.

Here's the bodice-ripping episode:

Two short sections - not very exciting - a lot of riding back and forth...:

Yay! The most recent ones had been mostly about clothing in my perception.

Sections 15-17 is PL ok.
Now let me get these details straight
1. S (invisible) helps G (with G's consent and knowledge) consummate marriage with B by force. During which S steals G's ring from B's hand.
2. K shows ring to B and starts a fight saying you B are a harlot because you slept with my husband.
3. G and S go to war (apparently forgetting their conspiracy to rape B). H convinces S that the war is over and to go hunting instead. Then H tells G where S is so G can kill him.
Is that right??

Close. Hagen actually does the killing:

And this sets up another lie/secret about who killed S...

[brownrottger]

Section 18 is PL ok. H could've just killed him in the hunt and none would have been the wiser!

Yeah, seemed like a a lot of plotting just to get Siegfried to take his weapons off.

Time (sniff) for Kriemhild to grieve:
