Trivia
- In Rules of Engagement, Cordonia is implied to share a border with Greece. The document the main character signs is based on Cordonian law and written in Greek. In The Royal Romance, however, no connection to Greece in any way is made.
- In Bloodbound, there is a fictional island in Greece called Mydiea. It is unknown if it's inspired by the real-life village of Midea[9], although given the different spelling and the fact that Midea is a village while Mydiea is an island, it seems very unlikely.
