    Oh, you want tiny lore fun facts, you know where you should go? Fishing, that's where!
    • 'Maiboi' is considered a great insult among the Vanu Vanu, so if you want an obscure in-universe swear word, there you go.
    • According to a fish in Coerthas Western Highlands, First Inquisitor Charibert (you know him, 'Sickness Must Be Purged', that guy) either was a cannibal, or was at least rumored to be.
    • Ostrakon Hepta, which we never saw, was a society where heirarchy was entirely decided by number of legs. Not surprising that one didn't work out.
    • One of Allag's methods of asymmetrical warfare was to specifically screw up the local ecosystems... through methods like 'introduce a shark made of knives into the river'.
    • Weirdly, the Azim Steppe's big thing about the sun and moon doesn't just spread to the xaela tribes, because a few of the Azim Steppe fish also have two versions, like the Dawn and Dusk Crayfish.
    • There's a surprising amount of white or albino marine life in Norvrandt, much of it having been mistaken for sin eaters. Most of them aren't.

    And for a non-fishing one...

    The in-universe story of Starlight traces back to an order of Temple Knights that sheltered a group of orphaned children. In the live game that order has never been named, but in 1.0 it was, and we've even met a member of it in the live game, albeit not in a great state: Ser Yuhelmeric, the second boss of Dusk Vigil.

    Not really surprising – sounds like natural selection at work after a hundred years of surviving better if you blend into the glare of eternal Light.
