* SiblingRivalry: Sarova versus Tolven, through not without reason. Their father made them promise to be co-rulers after his death, but Sarova thinks that Tolven won't stick to this deal...which is why she wants papa to make her the sole ruler. Tolven of course [[SelfFulfillingProphecy knows this and acts accordingly.]]
* StealthInSpace: Moya hides them in the nelvastatic cloud cover around the planet so they can work on curing Talyn while hidden from the retrieval squad. When Tolven tries to shoot them down, the Air Defense can't pinpoint their location, so he tries to flush them out with concussive missiles instead (presumably there's still enough atmosphere that high for them to work).
