* The steady deterioration of the arsonist's mental state carries its own form of horror. She starts out by telling herself she's not to blame for the fire in Nightwatch's apartment (which spread throughout the building and put a foal in the hospital). After CUNET moves her to a safehouse in Ponyville, she takes up the idea of murdering foals who don't adhere to the group's ideals and begins adapting her magic to that end. She starts to outline this viewpoint to Wordia in Chapter 59, but one of her guards stops her just in time. Then she gets arrested and locked up in a cell at the palace, worsening her slide into madness -- and after the mob breaks her out, she threatens to ''strangle two foals to death'' unless Cerea lets her go. She is ultimately committed to a mental hospital and will stay there until she is judged fit to stand trial for her crimes (if at all).

** The last vestiges of Discord's essence inside Tirek has given him the power to manipulate the wire under his flesh, extruding it from his body to use as CombatTentacles; he's been able to drain spots far away from his Tartarus cell by extruding the narrow wires through stone and earth for miles, then start draining where the tips end up.
** In the end, Cerea realizes that Tirek is such an existential threat to not just Menajeria, but to TheMultiverse, that she is forced to kill him by stabbing him through the heart with her own AntiMagic sword, willingly sacrificing her life to do so.

* In chapter 59, Wordia Spinner interviews the arsonist who burned down Nightwatch's apartment. She starts to realize with slowly growing horror that this mare perfectly represents the end product of all the distortions, insinuations, and half-truths she's been writing in the ''Tattler'' for years, twisted to serve the fanaticism of CUNET. And all this happens ''before'' the carriage suddenly loses all its magic and capsizes in a wild zone.

* Chapter 78 just builds on what makes Tirek so terrifying. He's revealed to be part of a highly mutagenic race of unknown origins from somewhere outside of Equestria, where the centaur form is just one of several possible forms a member can take. He was so envious of being unable to use magic that he surgically modified himself in an attempt to gain the power to manipulate magic for himself. Instead, he found himself cursed with a HorrorHunger; now he couldn't gain sustenance ''except'' by feeding on magic. When his brother "betrayed him" by seeking to find a way to undo the surgery, he killed him, then began terrorizing Equestria.
* Comes to the climax in chapter 79:
** The surgery that Tirek underwent? Implanting platinum wire into his '''bones'''.
** Despite the centuries in torment and his repeated defeats, Tirek refuses to give up his mad obsession with having magic. Even when Cerea suggests that, since now that he does have the fine control to only drain a small amount of magic at a time, he could take up a more peaceful existence by only feeding on what he needs, Tirek refuses. His logic: the only way he can possibly hope to end his hunger permanently is by taking '''all''' the magic. Even if this means wiping out Menajeria... and then moving on to the next world. And then the next world. And then the next, ad infinitum.

* Absolutely everything about Tartarus. It's an EldritchLocation which is at least partially aware, capable of rearranging its own geography and generating illusions to torment its captives. It can muffle or interfere with sounds, but [[LovesTheSoundOfScreaming will always let the sounds of screaming pass unhindered]]. Inside it, Cerberus becomes an abomination with an incredibly painful venom rather than the friendly three-headed dog he is outside. And there's the little factoid that, while inmates can kill each other, nothing you can do within Tartarus will ever let you take ''your own'' life.

* Untreated platinum is this in-Universe.
-->'''Nightwatch''': "...it absorbs magic. Constantly, from everything -- unless you know how to tell it not to, and that's really hard to do. And risky. So someone can wear the translator, and the platinum won't absorb from them. Just the air. And any thaums it takes in go to the spells. But when you get a lot of platinum in one place, and it's not treated...it just keeps pulling in power. Small pieces can leak a little, unless they're stabilized. Big chunks... they're more stable. They hold the magic. And when it can't hold any more, when there's nowhere for the power to go..."
