* FantasyCounterpartCulture: With Crimsnight being a Christmas analogue, Lilith mentioning her family celebrates it 12 days later implies she's from the equivalent of Eastern Europe, as some parts of the Orthodox Church do indeed celebrate Christmas on January 6 (AKA Epiphany), 12 days after Western Christian Christmas.
