Who would you skip?

So I'm writing my thesis about gender, gender roles and gender stereotypes in The Witcher (the Netflix series). I was going to focus on the three main characters, Geralt, Yennefer and Cirilla, but since I've already written 7000 words out of 10.000 I'm never going to be able to incorporate all three of them. So now I'm thinking about doing just two of them.

I could skip Geralt and focus on only female representation. However, I think masculinity and toxic masculinity is also very important to discuss so leaving that out would mean that my work doesn't have that much variety.

I could skip Cirilla. She's a child, so that way I can completely focus on adult stereotypes etc. Besides that, Yennefer and Geralt have a relationship and scenes together, so the tension between them could be interesting too. 

However, skipping one means that I'm leaving out one of the main characters, which is also kind of weird but if I'd have to fit them all within those 10k words I'll lose a lot of depth...

What would you do?

I would reread what's written and see if you could cut out any parts that seem too wordy while still conveying your same ideas, and if it comes down to leaving out circilla, maybe make mention to her that help support your original ideas

I would reread and try to cut out unnecessary things first. If there's no way to make it happen i would prob skip Cirilla

Yea so for Yennefer I've now written about how her plot revolves mosly about having or not having children, and that's 3k words already. For both her and Geralt I want to write about emotion (which is called chaos for Yennefer lmao). And then for Geralt I'll also be writing about his fight scenes probably. So that's what I still have planned so I don't think I can fit Cirilla in there sad

Yea so the thing is that my teacher said to keep my analysis on Yennefer because it's good so I'm afraid that if I cut out any parts I might cut out the wrong parts hahaha

I also feel like there's not too much to say about her yet. Like yea quite often film her from the side and shit but it's not like they're giving you anything else. I feel like her story will be more important in the next season. The only thing that's weird is that she's linked to Geralt, she's a child stop it hahahaha
