*This level uses the Diamond VFX Preset, which was made to emulate the background effect from ''vivid/stasis'' in the collaboration level [[Fixations Toward the Stars]].
*If you have a S- rank or higher at the part where [[Edega]] pretended [[Mark]] never existed, he will look away from [[Edega]] and leave.
**Else, [[Mark]] will dissapear.
***This could mean that the S-rank cutscene is [[Mark]]'s perspective, while any other rank's cutscene is [[Edega]]'s mind.
*This is the last non-boss level in the game's story.
