The monozygotic twin bond is closer, more enduring and more emotionally loaded than any other kind of relationship. But when we think of Narcissus as a womb twin survivor, we see someone who is bonded for life to his twin, so he will seek his twin in others, and attempt to replicate the original bond.
But in the Dream is a weaker, more vulnerable version of himself. So in the reenactment of their dream, the Alpha womb twin survivor seeks out weaker and more vulnerable versions of himself. This is how he may become a bully, for his need is paradoxical - he seeks out a vulnerable little person. But he wishes that other person to be equally strong - as strong as he is. Only then may the original twin bond be restored - the twin bond that was there long ago, before the Beta twin died.
When a twin dies before birth, the sole survivor needs help and understanding. Womb twin survivors are the sole survivors of a twin or multiple pregnancy. This group, 1 in 10 of the population, includes survivors of a stillbirth, miscarriage, abortion and a "vanishing twin" pregnancy. It is a story of a twin bond broken by death, leaving a lonely survivor.
