* MythologyGag: Sigma mentions Jestor, the best scientist among his people, as another example of how not even a warlock in the majority is safe once he offends the dictatorship in the slightest way. Jestor is the posthumous antagonist of "The Secret of Dragon House" in ''The Adventures'', the OVA spin-off of the original series, and he was accused of high treason in canon just like Sigma's father is in the fic.
