!Provides examples of:
* GeometricMagic: The fiend cannot step outside her assigned circle without facing excruciating pain. The only way she can safely get out is if another life enters the circle to take her place.
* {{Irony}}: Many years after the demon girl buried her partner, she found that an ugly olive tree had grown over her grave. She tore it to pieces, but left the roots alone so as to not disturb her deceased friend. Since olive trees are strong, it just grew back uglier.

* PointyEars: The fiend's ears are long and pointy, which made it necessary for her to hide them when she was among humans.
* PrecisionFStrike: When the boy falls asleep, the demon girl, bitter at her misfortune and inability to sleep or find peace, begins spouting almost incoherent profanities at him even though he can't hear her.
* RapeAsDrama: When the demon girl was still able to wander the world freely, she was close to another girl and often took her to watch the stars. The girl ended up getting raped and beaten in the hands of angry men, who soon met a very bloody end at the hands of the demon girl. Along with the rest of their town.
* SupernaturalGoldEyes: The demon girl has golden eyes as a sign of her nature as a fiend, which really stand out in contrast to the boy's comparatively plain ones.
* TakeAThirdOption: Life must be given in order for the girl to escape from her prison. The boy has to either exchange places with her or leave her to her fate. He chooses to instead plant a tree within the circle, thereby substituting the life of the tree for hers. It works.
