* One thing about ''Sonic and the Secret Rings'' that kind of bugged me is why Erazor Djinn needed to sacrifice the collector of the seven World Rings, in this case Sonic, in order to access their power. Then I remembered that the characters in the story couldn't touch the rings, only Sonic could. That leads me to think that Sonic could use the power of the rings without the sacrifice, as he could touch them to begin with! It would also help explain why Sonic was able to draw some of the World Rings away from Erazor after Sharha was killed instead of Sonic. She helped him on his quest, but wasn't directly responsible for collecting them. Thus, Erazor's control of the World Rings was incomplete and Sonic's negative emotions let him take those specific World Rings away. -- Drakohahn
* In ''Sonic and the Secret Rings'', it's heavily implied that Erazor and Shahra were together at one point, but it's never truly stated what it was they were before exactly. Shahra is very resistant to his influence until right before the final battle, where she (rather easily) gives in to Erazor, while the other times she was still firmly against him. I believe that Erazor was using some sort of ambiguous [[MindManipulation Mind Control]] at the last minute to control Shahra into giving him the World Rings. When Shahra speaks, her tone is very monotonous as if she's not showing emotion at all. Why else would Sonic's wish cause her pain when he wished for her to "do what was right?" Also, a minor eye-catcher to add to this theory is that once Sonic makes the wish, Erazor's lamp immediately appears right behind Sonic and Shahra, and yet it never shows that Shahra intentionally left this behind. - Tropers/MysteriousMrX
* While King Solomon may seem like an odd choice to have been the one to seal away Erazor to begin with, remember that he was once able to seal nearly 80 spirits alongside Ham with the Literature/ArsGoetia.
* Why does ''Secret Rings'' not have letter grades for level completion even though every other 3D Sonic game since ''Adventure 2'' had them? Letters being missing is why Sonic's there in the first place.

* While If you're working from an Islamic perspective rather than a Biblical one, King Solomon may seem like an odd is a perfect choice for the one who first sealed Erazor away. In Islam, [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solomon_in_Islam Solomon]] had the ability to speak to animals and djinn, and is said to have been sealed many demons using a ring given to him by God. The ''1001 Nights'' even frequently mentions him as the one to seal away Erazor to begin with, remember that he was once able to seal nearly 80 spirits alongside Ham with the Literature/ArsGoetia.
