Dacha Tactics #39 - Dark "Parachute" Dacha!

An interesting position from a game of mine. The position seems quiet and frankly, it'll be painfully quiet once black gets to castle. Any way to prevent it? Well, let's first assess colors, as always. We have a knight vs light bishop which means we're behind light, ahead on dark ( 500). But this seems abstract, no? How to use this to the full potential and seize the dark moment? Is there anything in the way of our dark? If we look closely, the e7 dark brick is helping black stay afloat ( preventing nd6, bd6, etc.). Can we uproot this dark resistance? This is a tricky but satisfying one!

Interact with the puzzle below.  If you get stuck, you can always click the "lightbulb" icon in the lower-left of the puzzle frame.  Good luck!
