* ObviousCrossoverMethod: With universes that include TheRealWorld, a world 20MinutesIntoTheFuture and just about every other type of past and future beyond, it's exceedingly easy to justify crossovers with other works.

* TheRealWorld: World 5.

* 20MinutesIntoTheFuture: World 9 is set in a future rather reminiscent of the present, albeit with advances in IoT, AI and as well as a major economic crash giving rise to a number of socioeconomic differences, including the fact that the US is now an utterly [[MegaCorp corporation-controlled]] TechnoDystopia. World 11 is nominally this, but in practice, it is more of a NextSundayAD setting.

* WorldOfActionGirls: The main cast is overwhelmingly women, and of these, the vast majority of them can be considered badasses in their own right. The men on a whole tend to be milder and less combat-inclined.
* VillainEpisode: Liss gets several interspersed through the story, forming not one but ''two'' parallel plotlines, one displaced temporally from the present events, though it isn't clear quite how far back.

Orobelle soon learns that this threat comes not from any of the three known universes, but from far beyond them. More news cascades in. The eight heroes of scripture, said to hold her power in balance, are determined by scientists to live beyond their three universes. A tunnel into a fourth universe is discovered.

Duchess Orobelle is the knot that holds the universes together. This is the legacy her late mother left her: [[BarrierMaiden if she dies, all reality would come to an end]]. She sits at the centre of a trouble history between Four Houses, a split matriarchy which together claims land in three universes as their own.

For all [[ArcNumber twelve years]] of her life, Orobelle has grappled with plots foisted upon her by the Diamond Duchy's long history of meddling in the affairs of the Houses. But none of the plots so far have been quite like this one. One night, she wakes up to the city centre destroyed, fifty civilians dead, and a ransom note hanging from her window that demands her life in exchange for the safety of her protector's niece, Freesia.

They are simply living out their lives, coming to terms with their strange powers, trying to live in spite of them...
