* In a CallBack to ''Discworld/FeetOfClay,'' we discover what Dorfl meant when he said that the one thing golems crave is 'Respite'. The golem Anghammarad spent over 19,000 years obeying orders, following rules, being dutiful and responsible and obedient as entire civilizations rose and fell. When he's obliterated, Death brings him to the featureless, empty black desert that lies between the Discworld and the afterlife. But Anghammarad has no need of judgement.

* A real life one, combined with CrowningMomentOfHeartwarming on the part of the fanbase: Since Sir Terry's death, it is common to tag posts referencing him or Discworld with "GNU Terry Pratchett" because "A man's not dead while his name's still spoken."

Moist -- ''shook her off, and ran out of the building, out of the city and back to his old life, or lives, always moving on, selling glass as diamond, but somehow it just didn’t seem to work any more, the flair wasn’t there, the fun had dropped out of it, even the cards didn’t seem to work for him, the money ran out, and one winter in some inn that was no more than a slum he turned his face to the wall'' --\\

* In a CallBack to ''Small Gods,'' we discover what happens if a golem ceases to exist in spite of their near-indestructibility. The golem Anghammarad spent over 19,000 years obeying orders, following rules, being dutiful and responsible and obedient as entire civilizations rose and fell. When he's obliterated, Death brings him to the featureless, empty black desert that lies between the Discworld and the afterlife. [[WhoWantsToLiveForever Anghammarad doesn't want an afterlife.]]

* The golem Anghammarad, [[spoiler:who has recently 'died', tells Death he will stay in the desert that seems to function as the entrance to the afterlife. When Death points out that there is nothing to do in the desert, Anghammarad replies "Yes. It is perfect. I am free". I found it very moving after the golem had spent such a long lifetime performing duties.]]
