The first time Eivor's drops to a critical level, the scene where she learns about elderberries will trigger, regardless of when or how it occurs. Eivor is unable to harvest elderberries for rations until after this, and it is possible to go the entire Vinland saga without ever triggering the scene, requiring those players to trigger it deliberately. It effectively acts as one free "rescue" from an otherwise lethal situation plus teleport directly to the village, one that is not available until this memory begins in earnest.

	The note recovered from Hvallgrof Outpost triggers dialogues directing Eivor to investigate both Steinnhus Camp and Brúhamarr Outpost, referencing "a camp near the village" and the "ridge cliff camp" respectively. However, the most likely course of gameplay progresses from Steinnhus to Brúhamarr to Hvallgrof in sequence, concluding at Narfljot. In fact, the note at Steinnhus updates the log to name all four camps and is the only one to explicitly call out Narfljot, a note at Brúhamarr points northwest to Hvallgrof, and the note in Hvallgrof that triggers the dialogues in question actually points further north, the direction in which lies Narfljot. Thus, it is likely the comments directing to the "earlier" camps is simply matched to the wrong notes.

	Juno's response to Gorm's attempt to summon her is taken verbatim from her reply to the [[American Brotherhood of Assassins\|Colonial Assassin]] [[Ratonhnhaké:ton]] during the memory "[[Chasing Lee]]" in the 2012 video game ''[[Assassin's Creed III]]''.

			The ghostly Odin only appears in Gorm's Memory Corridor cutscene if [[A Brother's Keeper]] is not yet completed. Vinland is not a required prerequisite to unlocking the [[The Road to Valhalla\|pledge]] to [[Hordaland\|Hordafylke]], and as Odin has no dialogue during this memory, his presence affects nothing. Similarly, he is not present for many of the other [[Order of the Ancients]] Memory Corridor cutscenes—particularly those of the [[Zealots]] and those not tied to a shire or city story arc—which allows for those assassinations to logically take place at any point in the story.
