Small Parent, Huge Child: Exaggerated with Ŋodhlin's mother and sister. While her mother, Mews (妙), is only 109 cm (3 ft 7 in) tall, her sister, Plum (風), stands 220 cm (7 ft 2.6 in) tall.

As the Good Book Says...: Elden, a Buddhist, quotes Genesis 1:27 when musing upon the complementarity of the sexes and to highlight the supernatural nature of her intersex condition.

Hermaphrodite: Elden is explicitly stated to have a unique form of intersexuality. The Mao are a race of alien humans who are defined by an effeminate intersexuality. The Lan'ma are described as sequential hermaphrodites who alternate sexes cyclically.

Second American Civil War: Apparently there was a "Cold Civil War" in the 2010s-2030s. What exactly this means has yet to be elaborated on.

Our Angels Are Different
 Divine Will / int_4977559e
comment
Our Angels Are Different: the angels, as described by Hallvarðr and Fukushi are based on a Thomistic understanding of angels. Hallvarðr describes them as existing in aloka (lit. "no world"): a state of being that transcends time and space. Their relationship to space is likened to that relationship the back of the board has to the field of play in chess. Not in the field of play itself, but equally close and distant to every square and intersection defining space. In fact, Hallvarðr goes out of his way to explain that their relationship to space is disanalogous to that of the player to the board, suggesting that their nature is not higher dimensional, but rather undimensional. He even directly states that angels are transcendent even to Devas, Immortals, and Buddhas who have manifested their own lokas, because the very nature of an angel makes it impossible to move further or closer to them even by manifesting your own spatial domains such as Brahmāloka (梵天界) or Viṣṇuloka (毘紐天界).

Evil Stole My Faith
 Divine Will / int_4e70e128
comment
Evil Stole My Faith: defied when Ŋodhlin explains “Much like how Ms. Breedlove’s Anglican faith is fortified when she encounters events of this nature, my beliefs as a Mohist are strengthened as well. On that day, I realized the existence of true evil, and if evil exists, then goodness must also exist, for evil is simply the privation of goodness. No degree of evil can shatter my faith in Heaven, for my monotheism finds reinforcement in the presence of evil.”

Rape as Backstory
 Divine Will / int_524f94d3
comment
Rape as Backstory: This is particularly present in Elden's story, where Ms. Breedlove's beloved twins were conceived through rape, but she cannot remember the event at all. On the contrary, while Mālhlin Ŋodhlin was not herself raped, she was a coerced to witness the rape and murder of two adolescents. Elden herself is a descendant of a woman who was conceived by rape, as is Mrs. Chiba in Momo's story.

Meaningful Name
 Divine Will / int_6bda9a30
comment
Meaningful Name: Will's full name is Shí Will Bea Trueman, which, despite being a pun, is layered with meaning. Shí (石) is a Chinese surname meaning "Stone", and indicates her being half-Chinese. Trueman means "faithful one", and is a Germanic surname belonging to her adoptive family. Elden Bunchûai, while not a pun, is also meaningful. Elden (ᡝᠯᡩ᠋ᠠᠨ) is Manchu for "light" and Bunchûai (บุญช่วย) is Thai for "assisting in merit", "assisting in virtue", or "assistance of a favorable outcome of a good deed in one's previous life". Together, her name can be interpreted as "light who assists merit", "light who assists virtue", and "favorable outcome of a good deed in one's previous life assisting light". A name which directly ties into the role she, as the narrator, gives herself in Capítulo Seis: Hermaphrodite. Moreover, her surname foreshadows her admixed heritage. Elden's surname actually contains information regarding her heritage as well. The morpheme "Bun" (บุญ) derives from the Pali "puñña" (पुञ्ञ), and is an important term in Thai Buddhism, while the "Chûai" (ช่วย) morpheme not only has specific ties to Buddhism, but is also ultimately derived from the Middle Chinese word 助 (d͡ʒɨʌH). Moreover, the way it is integrated into her Sinitic name, 功德助 (Gōngdézhù), resembles a Japanese name [such as 木村助 (Kimurasuke), 井上助 (Inouesuke), 前田助 (Maedasuke), 吉田助 (Yoshidasuke), 鈴木助 (Suzukisuke), 佐藤助 (Satōsuke), 田中助 (Tanakasuke), 山田助 (Yamadasuke), 渡辺助 (Watanabesuke), 斎藤助 (Saitōsuke), 中島助 (Nakajimasuke), 伊藤助 (Itōsuke), 高橋助 (Takahashisuke), 山口助 (Yamaguchisuke), etc]. Again, hinting at the character being admixed with a heritage they are disconnected from.

Completely Different Title
 Divine Will / int_89370eaa
comment
Completely Different Title: The Chinese title is 《天石》, which literally means "Stone of Heaven". It follows a similar pattern to the English, Japanese, and Korean titles, but instead of incorporating the protagonist's given name it incorporates the protagonist's birth surname 石 and instead of directly translating God into 上帝, 真主, 天主, 天主, or even 神, the title uses 天. Something similar happens with the translation the author provided for Spanish, French, German, and the Semitic languages, which would be "Lolita de Dios" (lit. "Lolita of God"), Will de l'Éternel (lit. "Will of the Eternal One"), Truman von Gott (lit. "True man of God"), ويل بنت الله and ויל בת אלוהים (lit. "Will, daughter of God").

Rape Is a Special Kind of Evil: Elden and Hyechin, depite having suffered through the Drowning Pool and operating in an organization populated by literal genocide survivors and their descendants, are uniquely horrified by the images that plague Mālhlin Ŋodhlin's nightmares, which they discover originate from when she was coerced to witness the sadistic sexual abuse and ritual slaughter of a young girl and boy.

Crossover Cosmology: Abrahamic: Apparently, faeries have had encounters with angels, and their description is reminiscent of the Thomistic angelology.

Japanese Mythology: Momo is 1/4th Oni and in chapter 11 she kills a Gashadokoro.
