* The Sheer brokenness of the Karma system (being Designed from the Ground up to allow the Corrupt,genuinely evil, and outright psychopathic to victimize others and easily evade punishment through little more then glorified wordgames whilst turning the universe itself against anyone who doesn't play along)) has suddenly begun to make a lot more sense, with the revelation that the Natural Counterbalance To Daemonkind may be just as malevolent/harmful, or at the very LEAST have no Concern about Collateral Damage. mayhaps the system which has caused countless misery was brought into being as part of a past deal in exchange for the permanent binding of a (minor) Deamon?

* The reason why Isadora was so opposed to Dionysus presence in Toronto, which was the reason she tried to stop Jeremy from making a demesne, is because he's a God of Madness and she's an Other of Balance. The two oppose one another and madness is her weakness. His presence weakens her.

* When Rose asks her a careless question, Ms. Lewis lets the truth slip about her botched awakening ritual:
-->“Vestiges can be twisted into something else,” Rose said. “And... I’d have power there?”
-->“You have power anywhere,” Ms. Lewis said.
-->“I mean I can have magical ability there.”
