My weekly talks with the Snow Queen have come to an end... she seems to feel that my view on the past is too limited, that she actually knows more than I do!

I could not help but become frustrated, and she did not appreciate that.

She seems to want to understand the past COMPLETELY, but we simply do not have enough information. There is too much extrapolation. Too many gaps to fill!

She says she is contructing the "True" past. As if that was possible! 

I fear that she has idealized a long dead history, erasing all flaws, and inserting her own meaning.

Still, if she chooses to live in the past, then that is only on her.
