* AppealToTradition: No-one on Eiram or E'ronoh can even remember ''why'' they hate each other anymore. It's just sort of become a tradition. After a moment's consideration, Monarch Cassel - not one of the galaxy's shining beacons of intelligence - admits this is a pretty stupid reason to keep it going.

* ChekhovsGun: The ability of the Amaxine station's launch pads to (apparently) fry anyone caught in them. [[spoiler:Reath uses it to kill the Drengir.]]



* LiteralDisarming: In order to save Nan from a would-be kidnapper, Reath uses his lightsaber to slice the guy's arm off.



* OutsideContextProblem: [[spoiler:The Drengir are nigh-immortal {{Botanical Abomination}}s with an insatiable thirst for murder and torment, are so cruel that despite not being Force-weilders they are suffused with the Dark Side, and are so crazy that even the Sith decided the best way to deal with them was to seal them away]].

* NeverMyFault: Nan's would-be kidnapper has the gall to be offended that the Jedi try to stop him kidnapping someone, and that they sliced his arm off in the process. Orla points out by his standards, the victim was just within her rights to ''not'' be kidnapped.
* NoMacguffinNoWinner: [[spoiler:Reath realizes the Drengir and Nihil could both use the power of the Axamine station to devastating effect, so he removes the reason it's useful by sending every escape pod shooting off, hopefully into the unknown.]]
* ObfuscatingStupidity: [[spoiler:Nan and Hague are actually Nihil, pretending to be a little girl and her elderly protector.]]

* SimultaneousArcs: ''Into the Dark'' starts with the Great Disaster, just as with ''[[Literature/StarWarsLightOfTheJedi Light of the Jedi]]'', ''[[Literature/StarWarsATestOfCourage A Test of Courage]]'', and ''[[ComicBook/StarWarsTheHighRepublicAdventures The High Republic Adventures]]''. Chapter 1 mentions that Imri and Vernestra have already left Coruscant for Starlight, indicating ''Into the Dark'' starts a little after ''A Test of Courage''.
