* The reason there are no predators at all in the Alpaca Highlands mists? [[spoiler: That's where Paprika lives. She would have [[KillerBearHug shared her love]] with all of them by now.]]

* Fred and Oleander [[spoiler: robbing Arizona]] is an in-universe explanation for how the player can have the same cosmetics throughout the game's story mode. And since Arizona's chapter as a playable character is finished, the player doesn't need to "get back" any of the items; we won't be using those cosmetics for that specific character anymore so the whole thing is not a problem. This explanation doesn't work for Velvet, though, who's the second playable protagonist immediately after. But since she's rich, this could be (lazily) handwaved by saying that she coincidentally already had those same items on her to begin with.

* The longma are dragon/horse hybrids, and while they are technically omnivorous they abstain from eating meat as a matter of pride and honor. This raises two questions:
** How - and more importantly ''why'' - would dragons and horses do the deed?
*** [[CuteMonsterGirl Have you seen Dragon Dash?]] Assuming the Honored Mother is also a hottie (pun intended) do the math.
** Have any dishonorable longma indulged in carnivorism, and what would be the punishment for doing so if The Hold has been sealed for ages?

* Pom is accompanied by a pack of dogs, and dogs in general are said to be an important part of sheep society. But dogs are carnivores, so how do they get fed? Do the sheep feed non-sapient animals to them? Can they produce vegetarian dog food that can still fully nourish dogs? The dogs are said to be predators in the backstory, so anything is possible.
** [[WordOfGod Finally answered]] in [[http://www.mane6.com/2015/11/book-of-lore-chapter-5-there-is-no-war-in-baaaaahs-sheep-state/ Pom's lore entry]]: they eat mice, rabbits, and other non-sentient, crop-destroying vermin. While the sheep obliviously [[TheDitz try to feed them green foods like alfalfa and clover]].

* Mature longma have manes of fire- an element which can be either [[FireOfComfort comforting]] or terrifying depending on context. Sounds like the two sides of their heritage, doesn't it?

** And what if it's the exact opposite? They don't need to eat each other...or breathe...[[AndIMustScream or feel...]]it wouldn't be any surprise if they're royally ''pissed'' at the herbivores for this.

** [[WordOfGod Lauren had answered]] that the races know well enough that they don't overpopulate.

* Two of the fighters are children. Not only are the adult fighters going to whale on them like any other opponent without mercy, but if one of them wins, they'll have to face the Devourer. Alone.

* Longmas are half-horse, half-dragon. [[OhCrap What's another word for]] [[RealityWarper half-horse, half-dragon hybrids]]?

* The fact that, unless something ''drastic'' happened to the world of Foenum that allowed the Predators and herbivores to live in peace, ''this will keep on happening'': a new Key Keeper will be elected to seal away the beasts...but not to reform them, but simply to keep them at bay. And seeing as they're already able to slightly escape from their prison already, then one day they may return regardless...[[EvilOnlyHasToWinOnce '''for good'''.]]

** While dogs are primarily carnivorous and belong to the mammalian order Carnivora, they can be fed some plant material like fruit.

* The living conditions inside The Hold, when one considers that the Predators, for generations, have been forced to subsist off one another in a desolate land of darkness for generations. Is it any wonder they want to escape?
