* ArtisticLicenseGeography:
** The city of Rennes in Brittany seems to have been confused with the small commune of Rennes-le-Château in Languedoc. The latter is the community with a church dedicated to Mary Magdalene and the centre of conspiracy theories about the Holy Grail.

* ArtisticLicenseReligion:
** The term ''Anusim'' is used in game to refer almost exclusively to the descendants of Iberian Jews who were forced to convert in the late 15th century. In reality, they are more correctly known as the Sephardic Bnei Anusim because Anusim is a blanket term applied to all Jews who were forced to convert, from the Rhineland Jews in the 11th century to the Mashhadi Jews in the 17th century.

* DerailingLoveInterests: Ercole Malaspina was originally portrayed as Dracaena's true love. Yet after the introduction of Nicodemo Malaspina as a new love interest for Dracaena, Ercole suddenly became an unstable, possessive alcoholic.
** There were an awful lot of hints in the prequel that Ercole drank too much, particularly when his bipolar disorder was getting the better of him--to the point where Dracaena had to take over his finances so he could pay the condottieri. And he repeatedly tried to discourage Dracaena from physically transitioning. The relationship was initially very loving, but still doomed.

added a few things

Added DiffLines:

** There were an awful lot of hints in the prequel that Ercole drank too much, particularly when his bipolar disorder was getting the better of him--to the point where Dracaena had to take over his finances so he could pay the condottieri. And he repeatedly tried to discourage Dracaena from physically transitioning. The relationship was initially very loving, but still doomed.


Added DiffLines:

** The player of Surya didn't name her after the deity. She named her after a female Indian co-worker.
