 * Jr. introduces the party to the half-Gnosified humans aboard the Durandal in Episode 5.

 * Helmer and Gaignun communicate as the population of Second Miltia watches the Proto Merkabah in Episode 12.

The melody at 0:13 (and later throughout the piece) is based upon a motif from Xenosaga Main Title.
