Trivia
- Taylor is able to sense music through a moth when she is being treated. This is a heads-up for later in the story when she is able to listen to whole conversations through her insects.
- Taylor also has some form of nervous system damage because of Bakuda's bomb that impacts her for the rest of the story.
- Given the different ways technology developed on Bet and Aleph it is unknown if the Ipod mentioned is actually an Ipod or something roughly similar.
