Human Resources: Dana has heard stories of traffickers killing children if their parents can pay the extortionate fees, then selling the children's organs. So she's understandably terrified when the Algerian Human Traffickers she's paid to smuggle her increase their fees and threaten her children.

comment
The Illegal: Dana is so desperate to flee persecution in Syria - especially after her husband is murdered - that she sells all her jewellery and then flees the country under the cloak of night, she can't risk selling her flat as it would draw to much attention. Her daughter Basma is sent to Vienna to live with Dana's sister ahead of Dana fleeing so instead may be a legal immigrant.

Bittersweet Ending: The comic ends with Dana and her sons safe in Serbia in a CARE International centre, but she still - as of the 2017 publishing of the comic - has not been reunited with her daughter or sister.

Police Brutality: Whilst the Macedonian Police leave Dana and her sons alone for the most part they beat the adult men in the group she's travelling with, scream that they are "filthy" and tell them to "go back where they came from".

Roman à Clef: Dana's is not the real name of the interviewee this comic was based on, it was changed to protect her identity.

comment
Harmful to Minors: Dana's young sons for the most part seem fairly numb to the horrors going on around them, possibly because they are too young to understand. However when they reach a refugee camp in Greece one of her sons does notice the food they have access too is covered in flies.
