==Notes==
===Continuity notes===
* Darak and Solila now know Dulin and Zalilak have been working together to prevent unity, something readers have known since [[Void Rivals issue 4|issue #4]]. 
* Goliant was first mentioned in Darak’s vision in [[Void Rivals issue 2|issue #2]], and briefly glimpsed at the end of [[Void Rivals issue 12|issue #12]].
* Skuxxoid first mentioned his wife and kids way back in [[Void Rivals issue 3|issue #3]], but we learned in [[Void Rivals issue 9|issue #9]] that they aren’t exactly around anymore, something Skuxxoid “forgot.” Is there something wrong with his memory, or is he just delusional? 
* Solila received the mysterious key from Mistress Vill in [[Void Rivals issue 5|issue #5]].
* Darak blacks out after taking his Jump Jet past the event horizon of the Sacred Ring’s black hole and experiences a vision from Zerta, just as happened in the flashback in issue #2.The liminal space he shares with Solila was previously seen when Solila received her own vision from Zerta after getting her first energon in [[Void Rivals issue 10|issue #10]]. 
* Hot Rod has been following the trail of his lost friend Springer since the Energon Universe special. And the Quintessons have been following him to the Scared Ring since [[Void Rivals issue 11|issue #11]].
* Zerta’s name being forbidden from being spoken by the Quintessons was first established in issue #9.
* [[Kanela]] gave Solila a data packet to be delivered to the [[Unifier]]s’ counterparts on Agorria in [[Void Rivals issue 6|issue #6]], a mission which Darak agreed to complete in her stead as she began her search for Zerta Trion in issue #12. Unfortunately, it was taken from him off-panel between last issue and this one.

===''Transformers'' references===
* Hot Rod’s shuttle, originally colored plain grey, has now taken on the proper colors that it had in ''[[The Transformers: The Movie]]''.
