** Mogget appears very briefly in "Terciel and Elinor", but his first encounter with Terciel, still a child, is incredibly unsettling, as they both sit atop a tree in the Abhorsen's House garden. The fact that he appears in his human dwarf form makes it seem worse, as he still moves like a cat, leading to several UncannyValley moments.

* The whole atmosphere in the Old Kingdom in "Sabriel" and "Terciel and Elinor" borders on ZombieApocalypse. The Dead are commonplace and most settlements are shut in tightly at night, relying on water and fire to keep the Dead away. The Abhorsens help where they can but with no real royal Army to assist, help is few and far between, to the point where most people only know the Abhorsen as a folk tale.
