Trivia

• Chapter 13 shares the same title as Rules of Engagement, Book 3, Chapter 11, Veil of Secrets, Chapter 7, and First Comes Love, Chapter 11, "Into the Woods". 
• In Chapter 2, it is mentioned that decisions you make will sway your moral compass. 
• In Chapter 4, Aster mentions in a premium scene that she has a novel by an author on the founding of Atlantis and that the history is quite fascinating.
• In Chapter 6, Katrina Harrington mentions how King Arthur's court developed the Weapon Forging spell, and that attuned miners during The California Gold Rush between 1848–1855 developed the Locator spell.
• In Chapter 7, if you ask how the tradition of kissing under a ralinko plant started, Cyran tells you it started with a legend of two star-crossed lovers, 'one from the lake and one from the land'. You say it reminds you of an Attuneless story with singing fish, in reference to The Little Mermaid.
• In Chapter 12, it is revealed that Blood Magick was banned in 1999.
• In Chapter 15, you can choose to officially start dating one of your love interests (either whoever you have romanced the most or otherwise), or stay single.
• This is the third series to end with two books, after #LoveHacks and Perfect Match. 
• In Chapter 2, Professor Katrina Harrington reveals that the Weapon Forging spell can be traced back to the Knights of the Round Table and was used to create Excalibur, suggesting that Guinevere and The Elementalists are related.
