* DesignatedLoveInterest: With the exception of Althalus-Emmy, all the romantic unions are handwaved or done off-screen in the span of two paragraphs. The most ludicrous was Andine and Elial, who passed from being obsessed with killing him (he slaughtered her father in blood frenzy) to love him desperately in the span of two weeks, after being chewed once by Althalus and Gher, because he wasn't really at fault but the person who contracted him as a soldier. The rest are not better.

* FantasyCounterpartCulture: Downplayed compared to David Eddings' other works, but it's there: Treborea is Italy, Wekti is Wales and Arum is Scotland.
* GeniusBonus: Appropriately enough, the Old Tongue is ([[TranslationConvention translated as?]]) Proto-Indo-European, the ur-ancestor of modern European languages.
* JumpedTheShark: As seen in the BeautyEqualsGoodness, DesignatedLoveInterest, and InvincibleHero tropes, this story is far more blunt than the Eddings couple's previous works and doesn't handle relationships or villains with nearly the same panache.
* ProtagonistCenteredMorality: The heroes never do anything to permanently put an end to the "witch burnings" carried out by the obsessed priest who try to kill Leitha. He's killed countless girls in the past and would likely go on to do so, but the only one they care about saving is Leitha.
