Gender-Equal Ensemble: There are eight members of the cast shown on the cover. Four males (Gambit, Shogo, Rictor, and Shatterstar) and four females (Captain Britain, Prestige, Gloriana, and Bei the Blood Moon). They're quickly joined by Kylun and Mordred, making it 6 males and 4 females. Some issues later, the team has 5 males and 4 females after Gambit is killed.

The Empire: Merlyn, Roma Regina's father, is the ruler of Otherworld this time around, overseeing everything from the Lunatic Citadel. He leads a continuous campaign against the 'witchbreed' with his allies, King Arthur (yes, ''that'' Arthur) and Mad Jim Jaspers' Furies.

Fantastic Racism: In keeping with Excalibur's theme, inhabitants of Otherworld still derisively call mutants 'witchbreed'. They even use an inhibitor collar infused with Blightswill to dampen mutants' powers.

Heroic Sacrifice: Apocalypse made sure that, for the mutants to reach the Siege Perilous, a sacrifice must be made. Betsy's friends each comment which will make the sacrifice. Gambit does, opening the way to his teammates to reach the lands of Mercator in their search for the Siege Perilous.

Back from the Dead: Mordred, who had been killed during Black Knight: Curse of the Ebony Blade, is revived by the Five and reappears in Otherworld looking younger and more innocent. In issue #5, Gambit is restored to life, after his sacrifice in issue #3.

The Bus Came Back: The first issue brings back Kylun, whose last appearance was a cameo during X-Force in 2020. Absolon Mercator, Mister M, after having his absence conspicuously noted, returns as the ruler of Mercator in Otherworld. He was appointed there by Apocalypse to keep the Siege Perilous out of the hands of enemies to mutants.

Continuity Nod: The Elven village searched by Furies at the start of the first issue is Jackdaw's Nest. Jackdaw was an Elven sidekick to the Black Knight and Captain Britain, later killed by the original Fury. In issues #3 and #5, Gambit's former role as Horseman of Death for Apocalypse is alluded to.

Gambit Pileup: Not involving the actual Gambit. As it turns out, Saturnyne, Roma and Merlyn were all trying to vie for someone's attention. Saturnyne was trying to regain Brian Braddock as her knight and ended up leaving the remaining magicks of the Starlight Citadel in Betsy's sword, Roma tried to earn favor of Betsy and her team via the Siege Perilous and ended up giving the Krakoans the means to travel to and from Otherworld and Merlyn tried to kill off Otherworld's mutants to curry favor for Saturnyne and Roma.
