* VagueAge: Only in the movie adaptation. The book states several times Jonatan is 13, but the movie is very unclear on wether or not Jonatan being played by a 25 year old actor is straight up DawsonCasting ''or'' if the character has gone through an AgeLift to make him a more plausible leader of the rebellion.

* EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: While [[spoiler:Jossi]] is conspiring with Tengil's guardsmen, he asks them to spare the life of the younger of the two Lionheart brothers, "as [he] has grown rather fond of the boy". He also seems to be genuinely heartbroken when he realizes Skorpan (who is aware that [[spoiler:Jossi]] has betrayed the Cherry Valley) wants nothing to do with him upon reuniting with him for the first time in several days.



* RedHerring: Soon after Sofia and Jonatan realize there is traitor among their midst, the audience is lead to believe Hubert is said traitor due some vaguelly suspicious words and actions, all of which are seen through Skorpan's limited (and highly biased) perspective. [[spoiler: But it's actually the jolly tavern owner Jossi.]]



** [[spoiler: Jussi]] has been promised he'll rule Cherry Valley after Tengil wins. As soon as he's out of earshot, the guards start laughing about how he's going to be fed to Katla instead.

Is there an issue? Send a MessageReason:
The book is very explicit about dragons being evil and malicious. Katla first left its cave to attack Tengil's castle and slaughter its inhabitants.


* NonMaliciousMonster: Katla might be a huge dragon. And if she breathes her fire on you, you will soon become paralyzed. But she was controlled by the evil dictator Tengil, who kept using her to keep his power. And if you only leave her alone, she won't harm anybody.
