** Given the power and influence the Blacksnakes (and especially [[spoiler:Claude]]) wield, its very likely that they indeed bribed Roque or Giff to let them set up shop. Probably Giff, since even at his worst Roque's shown to have ''some'' lines he won't cross.

** Partitio's chapter one was hinted to take place some time before the present day, seeing as Orerush can't really liven up in one day. Malaya was probably used there to sell that idea for after the fact.

* In Partitio's first chapter, the apothecary who gives him the medicine for Papp [[https://i.imgur.com/kFOmNAO.jpg looks like Malaya]]. Considering that Malaya is [[spoiler:actually a hallucination by Castti, at least all the times we see her during Castti's present-day story]], does this mean Partitio's first chapter "really" takes place before Castti's? Is it just a (really weird) case of sprite reuse? Or is it maybe a RedHerring for the sake of throwing off any first-time players who actually notice this?

* During Osvald's final chapter, why does he just stand there and listen when [[spoiler:Harvey expresses his intent to take Elena's blood]] instead of barreling forward immediately to attack him before he can actually go through with it?

** It might be because Ochette is so young at the time that he's trying to ease her into caring for beasts by only allowing her to take one. If the other one hadn't immediately run off, it's likely he would've let her take it later.

** Mechanically, it's probably for the sake of consistency with the other classes. Narratively... well, it ''is'' still a group of sorts, so even if it's more in an official sense, it could still be a place where thieves go for training?

** The fact that [[spoiler:the baby is heard crying afterwards]] implies that it survived, at least. Whatever happened to it after that is up in the air, though.

* By the end of Throné's story, whatever happens to [[spoiler:Claude's newborn baby]]? The fate does not appear to be promising as [[spoiler:the baby's birth mother, an emaciated woman, begged Throné to ''kill the baby'', maybe as a MercyKill. And should the baby live on, if it were to grow up in Lostseed, the baby might grow up broken and hollow like its remaining residents]]. Aside from Throné remarking that [[spoiler:the baby is seemingly crying over Claude's death]], Throné's travel banter with Osvald reveals that babies communicate through crying. However, the crying that is heard is of pure sorrow. Was [[spoiler:the newborn]] also fully aware of its situation as [[spoiler:Claude's latest vessel attempt to become a perfect Blacksnake assassin and Vide the Wicked's potential new host]]?

* How did Papp and Partitio never catch on to the slave-trading ring in Oresrush? Surely ''someone'' would have been suspicious of people coming from out of town in the middle of the night to go to the (abandoned?) foundry. Did the Blacksnakes strike a deal with Roque or something?
