>Would my rambling above count as an example of overthinking and overexplaining stuff? I mean in terms of exploring darker aspects of the lore, it should be tolerable, right?
Unless your story was already into magitechno mumbo jumbo then yeah you're probably going too hard into it. Like, in your attempt to explain(or at least question) what didn't need to be explained, a few things came up that gave me reason to feel disagreement(such as the multiple distinct entities thing in #2, which isn't exactly true because they share an HP pool and thus are all tied together in some mystical way).
That said, I think you can get away with a lot of the things you seem to have in mind so long as you just do them and don't go too hard into explaining them.
It's a lot like how you typically shouldn't give exact numbers in your story: someone is going to pull out the calculator and look for an inconsistency to pick apart.
