• Caius's goal of erasing memories of the dead in order to start anew is the same as Bhunivelze's, another antagonist from Lightning Saga. While Caius wants to achieve memory purge to be absolved of his sins and achieve personal salvation, Bhunivelze sees memories of the dead as a hindrance as it allows humanity to have emotions, something he cannot read and understand, so its removal will help him control humanity in his own new world.
