* OneDialogueTwoConversations: Noah thinks that Bird is asking about how he fights without a magical shield. She thinks she's asking about him fighting without ''clothes''. Shenanigans ensue when she admits that it's "freeing", and he tells her to expect his students to do the same in their exams.
--> '''Bird:''' You're serious?\\
'''Noah:''' Yeah. Why wouldn't I be?

* GreenThumb: The Torrin family focuses on runes that control vines and thorns. Moxie Torrin carries seeds that can sprout and grow at her direction in seconds to bind or even strangle an enemy. [[spoiler:Once she breaks free from Magus Evergreen, she adds flowers to her rune set -- and her domain then allows her to grow any kind of plant she wants, from any ''living or nonliving'' organic matter. That's right, unless you have a stronger domain that can stifle hers, she can cause thorns to burst out of your own skin, and toxic flowers to grow in your orifices.]]

* LaserGuidedKarma: Noah is caught with his pants down due to having died (which only recreates his body, not his clothes), and makes up an excuse about naked fighting being more efficient because things can't snag. Then, next time he goes hunting, he realizes that he forgot to bring a change of clothes at all, so if he were to get killed and his corpse lost, he'd have nothing. Meaning that now he needs to actually go naked until it's time to return.

* ElementalPowers: The commonly available Runes include variations on fire, water, wind, and earth, along with more esoteric options like vibration. Once the Rune is in your soul, you can shape the corresponding element with your intent, forming wind blades, throwing fireballs, etc. Noah starts off with the Wind Runes he inherited from Vermil, but later pursues [[spoiler:all the classic elements together, in a destructive form, combining volcanoes and earthquakes and tornadoes and floods to make the "Natural Disaster" Rune]].

* BigFishInABiggerOcean: Having reached tier 7, Alister expects to be the top of the heap, stronger than anyone else in the Arbalest Empire, to be treated as a god and see the noble houses quail before him. He's startled to be immediately confronted by someone much stronger, pinned down when he tries to resist, and told that tier 7 isn't as rare as he believed, it's just that he's no longer allowed to remain in the Empire.
--> '''Garina:''' Once you get to a point where you aren't a complete waste, it's time to move on so you don't squish the playground on accident.
