* StoneWall: The Abyssal Expedition can take this to ridiculous extremes as some of the high-tiered tiles sometimes have a trio of Flora. Flora's abilities frustratingly keep her out of range of attacks until all other combat units die, but until then, she focuses on protecting surviving allies with a shield that mitigates 65% damage while constantly restoring their health. Without overwhelming force, a trio of Flora would quickly grind down a player's team with their constant AoE damage without suffering a lot a return, as each Flora would constantly replenish the shield, essentially making whatever combat unit remains functionally invincible, especially if they're a tank unit like Thoren, Orthros or Lucien. These tiles were most likely made to tempt players into wasting stamina on trying to take them, making it more ideal to go after tiles that don't have any Flora units at all.

* {{Irony}}: The previous civilization once attempted to overthrow the gods and created a pair of [[DeityOfHumanOrigin artificial deities]] to use as superweapons against them. The old civilization was defeated before they could deploy them and the two artificial deities, "Day" and "Night", were sealed into slumber. A Celestial eventually managed to recover them, but his conscience overtook his ambition, so he worked with a similarly rebellious Hypogean to care for them as an actual family and protect them against those who would seek to use them. The Celestial and Hypogeans as a collective worked together to tear the adopted family apart so that they could use them as {{Human Weapon}}s themselves. After breaking their brainwashing and realizing that they have been used, Day and Night are motivated to fulfill their original purpose and embark on a RageAgainstTheHeavens against both Celestials and Hypogeans.

** Human alchemy was originally banned by the previous civilization, because it was not only unethical, but they predicted that it could have catastrophic consequences. But AndManGrewProud, and younger generations knew better than their foolish predecessors and their backwards "moralizing". As the ruler of the previous civilization prepared to overthrow the gods, he recognized the potential of this technology, fired the old-fashioned mages, and replaced them with ones that knew better. The ultimate result annihilated their civilization and threw the world into ruin.
