I think these were the steps I took. This shit took forever
Guestfish the image

start the guestfish vm an env
Inspect current partitions. These are listed in bytes

[0] = {
part_num: 1
part_start: 1048576
part_end: 13421510655
part_size: 13420462080
}

Del the partition you’re shrinking
1
| ><fs> part-del /dev/sda 1
|
Add it back at your preferred size. Note that part-add is in sectors
1
| ><fs> part-add /dev/sda p 2048 26213887
|
The partition will still be the same size in your list until you resize

Now convert to raw, create a new container which is larger than your new desired size
