* AllTheOtherReindeer: Previous incarnations of Life and Death were personified by the same dragon. But in one generation, the dragon split into two sisters, each an AnthropomorphicPersonification of only one of these forces. Since some of the previous dual incarnations used their power over death to annihilate the current version of humanity, Noriko's caretakers feared and shunned her, focusing their attention on the Dragon of Life.
