* TheWoobie: It's hard not to pity the plight of... well, the world in general in the prologue, but ''especially'' the wayward spirits of the Einarr people -- especially, those who did ''not'' consent to being spirited away in order to escape the storm. Because they weren't willing or ready to go, they didn't AscendToAHigherPlaneOfExistence like the rest of their people, and were instead left stranded in the land of the living as ghosts. Fortunately, the people working to build Founders' Wake manage to create coral bodies for them to inhabit. Multiple souls have to share a body and become a new person formed from the old ones, so it's not a ''perfect'' solution, but at least it's a reprieve from how utterly unfair their original fate was.

* EnsembleDarkhorse: Being the first NPC to be named and to be actively useful, Finneas Cawl was basically destined to become this. It helps that he was one of the few actual ''characters'' in the prologue.

Added DiffLines:

* ParanoiaFuel: Blink sharks. Not only can they teleport and suddenly appear right in front of you, ready to feast, but they can also camouflage themselves well enough to be completely invisible in dark water... at least until they decide to teleport, but by the time you spot the telltale flashes of green, it may well be too late.

* TearJerker: A remarkably emotional moment in Part V of the prologue, when the citizens debate the ethics of having departed souls inhabit new bodies. Justin voices a man whose son was among the Einarr that died before having his soul rescued. He gets extremely choked up as he says, quite bluntly, that his son was gone, and now he's back and he can talk to him again, and he simply ''does not care'' how they achieved that, he's just grateful they could.
