6!Hanging Plot Threads
7[[WMG:What was the trap Elilial referenced in her meeting with Darling?]]
8The plot of the Emperor; Darling didn't hear about it because it was sealed by the throne.
9[[WMG:To avoid the loss of their culture and independence, Puna Dara will...]]
10...become an entire nation devoted to Eserion, so they can claim their freeing of slaves and other acts as parts of their worship.
11[[WMG:What is the role of Arachne?]]
12Arachne's role is maintaining the asymmetry in the Circle of Interaction.
13[[WMG:The Black Wreath's agenda is to...]]
14Build legitimacy for Elilial's eventual prince. The plot with the archdemons in human guise and the stacking of the newspapers and the interview all increase Wreath sympathies. The goal is to spread the truth of Elilial's banishment to everyone simultaneously and get around the automatic smiting.
15[[WMG:The Hand of Esarion]]
16As of Chapter 11, the commenters all seem to think it's Principia. But Principia is just the best of the ''traditional'' thieves/con-artists, and the point of the new round of Hands is to pick up ''new'' characteristics. I'm guessing it's Bishop Darling himself (who, furthermore, already has access to divine light). Darling is the one who's breaking new ground in all directions....

18!Connection to Only Villains Do That (Warning: Spoilers)
19Book 3 of Only Villains Do That reveals that the twin goddesses of Ephemera are also Elder Gods who attained godhood from the same source as the Elder Gods of this series, except they decided to create their own world to play with. Since both worlds use the same underlying system, it's possible that Tellwyn and Seiji's crusades will converge in rare instances.
20[[WMG:Yomiko's soul was stuffed in a katana and thrown away, and eventually collected by a little beastgirl who becomes a student in a future book]]
21This allows us to get to know Yomiko while discovering the joys of anime ijitsu applied to a wacky magical school.
22[[WMG:Upon meeting Tellwyrn, Rhydion will immediately beg for her hand in marriage]]
