- Catharsis Factor:
- How Judge Hareheart is dealt with. After covering up Cunningson's crimes, beating up and imprisoning innocent people and betraying his own country, leading it to near-total disaster, it's beyond cathartic to see him trembling in fear in front of the consequences, being dragged to a trial by one of his victims and finally getting hanged for his crimes.
- Uncle King's defeat is this both In-Universe and out, as his insulting gift is returned to him in an equally insulting way.
- Moral Event Horizon:
- Cunningson crosses it by stealing from both the royal family and the poor for his own gain.
- The jester crosses it by taking the dead Cunningson's stolen loot for himself.
- Hareheart already shows himself as an asshole by being a Dirty Coward who bullies the poor, but he hits rock bottom by becoming a traitor.
