Book 1

• "Dora... We have done... our Duty! Eyaaaaagh!"
  • "Me too, Warlord."
• Jillian and Vinny's reaction to Ansom's death. "Hey, you're the only one grievin' right now, right? Right?! IZZAT WHAT YOU THINK?"
• This is either one, or narrowly avoids it by virtue of snarky hamster.

Book 2

• A subtle one, but poignant when one takes the Summer Updates into account: in the most recent update (as of 3/6/11) a portrait of a lady we have not seen before is visible over Don King's shoulder. Instead of being an obvious Transilvitian, however, she has red hair, skin that isn't grey, and dresses in orange as opposed to the normal monochrome of Transylvito. Conclusion? This was Queen Bea of Unaroyal, a close friend of Don's who disbanded herself and her entire side when Wanda beat down the door. This is in a panel where Don tries to convince his Moneymancer accountant to be true to her ideals in vain.
• Such was the worth of the king's currency, and Slately spent his lies well.
  • Mitigated somewhat, as Slately has changed his mind.
• King Slately asking Don King for a loan to promote Tramennis to an heir.
  • And Don, preparing to break the news that he can't indulge his old friend's last request.
    • Bunny's heartbroken face at seeing the Don and Caesar at odds a few panels before only adds to it.
• Tramennis hearing the news of Ossomer's death and decryption.

Tramennis: She really croaked him. You saw it? She turned him into a little puppet? Like Ansom?... The fate of the world shall be as the world deserves, but not so with each one of us.

Book 0

• Tommy Firebaugh's sudden death would have been heartbreaking for Wanda, but the kicker is that she knew before anyone else because of her croakamancy senses, which she took great pride in.
  • It gets worse, after she uncroaks him, she orders him to put his arms around her and sobs in his arms.
• Wanda's father promotes her to Overlord to preserve their Side, which is under attack while she's away. Her new "Ruler Senses" allow her to know when each unit back home croaks.

Narration: Even as she struggled to comprehend, this brand new part of her mind calmly told her the score. The Garrison had seven Goodminton units left. Four. "No", she said. One.
