1* BrokenBase: The fact that Saito is pretty much manipulated by everyone.
2* HarsherInHindsight: The Annual "Harass the Valliere" Festival sounds like a harmless event where where Zerbst lead farmers on exciting 'hunts' through the border's contested land. Usually to break enough stuff to make it an annoyance, but not enough to warrant a repercussion.... That is until you learn that they do it on the one day when Karin refuses to leave her manor because that was the day Luise was taken and Cattleya was ''killed'' several years ago and she's '''grieving'''.
3* IKnewIt: A lot of readers figured out TheReveal on Chapter 73.
4* IronWoobie: The sheer amount of things Siesta goes through in the fic is just depressing, but she soldiers on.
5* StrawmanHasAPoint: [[https://forums.sufficientvelocity.com/posts/5055420/ Backed by the author]], the Cardinal has a point about what Karin did weakening the country.
