Trivia
- The enemies in the adds phase are references to various friendly monsters from FFIX. These enemies request various items from the party.
- The Mu requests Ore. In this encounter, its enrage, Ore-rigato, is a pun on "Ore" and "arigato" (thank you in Japanese). Sugar Riot will cast an ore-themed raidwide attack (Ready Ore Not) prior.
- The Jabberwock is also a reference to the classic "Jabberwocky" poem by Lewis Carroll. Its attacks, Manxome Windersnatch (the binding attack aimed at a healer) and Slayous Snicker-snack (the instant-death attack when it reaches its healer target) reference various nonsense words originally from the poem.
- The Yan hitting the hardest of all of the adds is based on the friendly Yan becoming one of the game's most difficult encounters if the player decides to attack it.
- The Feather Circle (Feather Ray in this encounter) creating puddles is based on the Trouble status inflicted by enemy Feather Circles, which would cause damage dealt to the afflicted party member to be spread to other party members. The boss Feather Ray in The Skydeep Cenote shares this reference.
- The Gimme Cat, meanwhile, merely pretends to be one of the friendly monsters and asks for a Diamond. If the player gives it one, the cat flees without giving anything back to the party. If attacked, the Gimme Cat retaliates with the Comet spell, referenced here as the Hangry Hiss attack it uses if not defeated quickly enough.
- This encounter arguably featured the first adds phase in a modern (Stormblood onwards) savage encounter that requires significant AoE damage optimization, crowd control, and target prioritization, making it a point of difficulty for many players.
