Dark Beginnings directly plays into establishing shadow's struggle in this story, after Shadow 05, Shadow is trying to never look back on his past and simply "move on" like that, he doesn't grieve, he doesn't allow himself to feel, he forces himself to not think about her.

Every memory in dark beginnings is of Maria calming Shadow and giving him positive thoughts, but in the present we are shown that no one even attempts to talk shadow down because he wont allow himself to ne vulnerable, he's not capable of having positive thoughts because he keeps shutting them down

Black Doom's plans in the story is to deceive him into becoming violent, giving him new habilites to keep fighting, taunts him and keeps bringing him back into Radical Highway, the time where he was fully indulging in his hatred, Back Doom wants THAT Shadow again

But Maria is here, and just like in Dark Beginnings, she is bringing Shadow positive thoughts

Present Shadow, the Shadow that is constantly trying to avoid these scenarios, has to live it again, Shadow is vulnerable once more, and begins to find strength in that, thanks to Maria

So even when Shadow has gained all the powers that Black Doom's gave him, by accepting maria's words in his heart again, and allowing himself to feel, he manages to reject Black Doom's influence.

Shadow finds strength in welcoming Maria into his heart and allowing himself to feel, the defeat of Black Doom shows that Shadow is taking control of who he is, rejecting the person Black Doom wants him to be by evolving from the feelings he kept shutting down
