OOOO this is awesome!!! Some books I have been reading of late don't resolve the myth. They just tell the stories that are known. And then others give a large back story to how the people think the myth came to be. Where did she come from. Who was she before this. What is her end game. Who was the one that got away to tell the story. That kind of thing. Or yeah the one time someone fought back and injured her and how. That would work too. I love the core of it. I think it could stand alone because it gives the reader shivers :D And then it would be easy to stat up and run any kind of quest line either from her perspective or a towns persons. This is so good!!!
