* {{Foreshadowing}}:
** There were early hints that Glossaryck's arm was never truly broken and that he could simply replace. For the former, he moves said broken in the same manner as his unbroken arm in his early conversation with Meteora, finding Father Time, and annoyed at the thought of seeing Reynaldo. For the latter, he makes copies of arms during his teaching of Meteora of the beginning.

* BeenThereShapedHistory: Glossaryk half-heartedly helped the first mewman settlers by giving them Meteora's rattle and converting it into the Wand. He then gifted it to a random woman and warned them to seek shelter from a storm under a nearby stump. He also fueled the monster-mewman war by provoking Toffee into attacking him, so Meteora would use magic in retaliation for what he did to his arm some time ago. This attack was set prior to Comet's attempt of peace.

* ShroudedInMyth: Mewman women didn't have innate proficiency with magic because of their sex, Glossaryck literally just chose someone at random and hastily made a wand so he can carry on with his duties. In reality, magic just manifests differently depending on the user's sex. They just kept the tradition of having queens be the ruling body because that's how it's always been, the men just weren't given a chance to display their abilities with magic.

* TheReveal: The ability to ''dip down'' appears to differ depending on the butterfly queen/princess who learns to do it. While Star's manifest's as the ability to use spells without her wand, a [[FreezeFrameBonus Blink and You'll Miss it]] scene during Meteora's ''dip down'' of Toffee's eyes going black & empty when being hit by her [[EyeBeams familiar green eye lasers]] shows her previously displayed SoulEating ability to be Meteora's.
