* Another laugh at the Bishop's expense comes in one chapter prelude, where he sends a missive to the King of Spain talking about how another priest recently unearthed some Christian iconography from an Aztec shrine, which he believes is proof of an ancient priest coming to these lands long ago... only to then have to redact his statement when he learns the entirely mundane truth from Mixtli, that it was taken from one of Cortez' men when they first arrived and just was left there during the invasion, leaving him looking like an idiot who put myth above common sense.

* Mixtli in his old age loves to exposit about his sexual escapades and talk about his nipple theory even after repeated reactions from his offended audience that makes it clear that they don't want him to and don't enjoy him doing so. At first, it can be mistaken for ValuesDissonance but the fact that he ''keeps'' doing it gives the very strong impression that Mixtli is doing it deliberately because he's too amused by their reactions not to. It becomes a running gag throughout the whole book. Not that the reader minds.
** Speaking of old man Mixtli, there is also the way he takes [[DeadpanSnarker digs]] at his audience including at their prudish attitude and hypocrisy before feigning ignorance and pretending to be confused as to why they're suddenly upset.
