Lore/Easter Eggs

This section contains extra details involving the Ablaze Multiverse that are considered canon by the author, even if they are not stated outright.

## Details

### *A Day in a Plastic Bag's Life*

* The desolate environment described in *A Day in a Plastic Bag's Life* is a direct result of the fallout of the Roosevelt Massacre, which took place hundreds of years before.
* The dunes Perkin transverses were created when Ataraxia's glass building morphed back into sand over time.

### Anima

* Anthony Roosevelt III did not become an Abnimaen due to his obsessive devotion to Takut.

### *Alice*

* Alice Addison is the missing fifth contestant from Team Navy, given that she has a love for gaming and mentions being upset having to cancel a trip to Japan, where Trials of Audacity take place.
* Alice's mother is described to be reading a new book from rectified author Paul Kuiper—*Whirlwind*. This means that *Alice* must take place after *Trade-Off* and *Forsaken*, when Paul gets his career back on track again.
* Alice calls Anthony Roosevelt III a "Orth"—a short form of Unorthodox, the unofficial Allegiance made up by CyberWorld's players used to describe people who either appear all good and completely evil.

### *Annyeong*

* Chae-won’s mother is absent throughout the *Annyeong* series, since she is deceased. The cause for her death is unknown.
* Chae-won is upset that Han-woo is dedicated to serving in the Cybersecurity Reinforcement Division as her mother died during her military career. Thus, she is adverse towards the idea of Jung-hyun joining the organisation as she fears for his safety, especially after Resonance Day.

### *CyberWorld*

* The Apostles planned its first assault to take place on Resonance Day knowing Aiko and Suki's announcement would draw a large crowd. Furthermore, Yunon would be filled with many new players who could be killed easily.
* The Apostles' garments are meant to represent Galen's time-hopping attire that he was often seen wearing after the Roosevelt Massacre.
* Enoch only sent one Apostle to check on Michael as he did not believe the rumours regarding Chronocease.
* Michael used to play tennis regularly, which helped him get the hang of using a Kineblade quickly.
* Aiko is described to be reading a book with featuring a “sinister cover of two high school students facing each other, their hair spinning into spirals that overlook the crowd of students next to them as they look on, transfixed by the bizarre sight”. This is a reference to Junji Ito’s horror manga *Uzumaki*, showing that Aiko’s tastes are the complete opposite of what one would assume to be part of her persona.
* Similarly, Suki’s desk contains “a mug shaped like an anthropomorphic piece of mochi”.
* The Battle of Lekisha took place on September 30th, 2036, CyberWorld's 5th anniversary.
* The Battle of Arndeayd forced Resistance members and Apostles to stay awake for three days straight.

### *CyberWorld II*

* Michael does research on the first Apostle he killed and mentions that he had two children, a girl around Michael's age and a younger boy, refering to Chae-won and Tae-won respectively.
* Yoona mentions knowing a friend who felt she couldn't leave the past behind—Chae-won. Since they were school friends, Yoona was aware about Chae-won's situation with her father and grandmother, but does not know Chae-won ended up leaving Singapore.
* Levina has a soft spot for *Night Sky: Embers of a Fiery Heart* as it was released on her birthday, despite the film's quality.

### *Feline*

* Mitchell has a crush on Hailey, but is unable to act on his feelings since she is dating Gray. Although, Hailey and Gray are aware of this, it has become a topic that they avoid discussing to keep their friend group intact.
* The snacks Hailey collects from her basements are made by Tibbits, the same brand Galvin eats in *CyberWorld II*.

### *Galvin's Guardian*

* The police cars described at the end were headed to Kakushin Games' main headquarters in Tokyo after Aiko and Suki get trapped in CyberWorld.
* Since Yamato offered Galvin Tibbits to eat when he was feeling down, he eats it often to make him feel at ease.

### *Three Words*

* The phone call Chae-won makes to Jung-hyun does not go through due to network congestion. This is the combined result of an overwhelming amount of panic calls being made regarding the events of Resonance Day and many CyberWorld players staying logged on from getting trapped by the Apostles.
* Chae-won is adamant on going back to Korea because Han-woo was in charge of checking on her grandmother every few months.

### *Trade-Off*

* Some time before *Trade-Off*, a fire burned down Paul Kuiper's office. It is unknown if this was sabotage or an accident.
* Most of the short story's events takes place at a Hideout Club bar, the same brand of the one visited by Michael, Yoona and Levina in *CyberWorld II*.
