The sound is balanced…and works.. it might be interesting to see where you might go from where you left off.. (how and if you decide to modulate) . 
 Theory can be helpful in revealing options, and blind spots, but it can't (really) write the piece for you… Reminiscent of Hans Zimmer, yes?

You are right. I admire Hans Zimmer  :) But the motif played by violas in the beginning is used in many works for action movies and video games. The piece is intended to be used in series/movies' opening credits so it has to be short in length.
