 * If the player recuits and preserves everyone, six recruitable characters from the first book, seven from the second (including Val), and all eleven in this book appear at Kenna's pre-battle party, totalling 24 characters (excluding Kenna and Dom) to be present in Stormholt Castle at one time.

 * The Nevrakis are no longer the main antagonists.
 * Some characters recruited in the first book do not appear in the third, namely Severin, the Bear, and the Mechataur.
 * The book cover features a new stylization of the title, as well as Kenna fighting Dom instead of working together.
 * There is only one point system, the Legend point, instead of two, and it fills up from all playable characters' choices.
