Alright, got some more info:


 * Heartbeat Clocktower is the name of both Castle Hedgehog's and Evil's Theater's tower, I can confirm this for sure now (glad I didn't make an error earlier).


 * Since about six months ago (I assume six months before the battle at the beach), Mikina was often visiting the Anonymous Coast on Abyss I.R.'s orders.


 * The pressence of the vessels of sin was a guess at the reason why.


 * Arth was indeed a Prince at the time he met Anne; his father seemed to step aside and let his son take the throne after he married.


 * Prim is possibly even more vain and petty than we already thought, let me see if I can organize the progression of events/motivations...


 * Lucifenia was a rather small country at the time that Anne and Prim were kids.


 * Anne was apparently from a rather minor noble family so Prim seemed to look down on her somewhat as being the one left out (though their friendship seemed to be legitimate).


 * After Arth x Anne happened, Prim felt like she was the one left out, so naturally she thought it was best to poison Arth's wine glass if she couldn't have him.


 * The assassination attempt failure (Gift), led to Prim being suspected and few were allowed near the King; Prim takes this as a huge insult since Anne explains, "It's not that we suspect you".


 * She feels so bitter about this that, if she can't marry the King of Lucifenia and be its Queen, she'll go to Marlon and do that instead (and so she did).


 * Elluka was apparently known as the "Witch of Beelzenia" before switching sides; I need to double check this but it seems Prim was taught by Elluka before she visited Anne and Arth in Lucifenia (not sure if this is after Elluka switched siddes in EC 980 though).


 * Her training was incomplete so Prim did her own research into magic, learning about artifacts, tools, and (I think) the vessels of sin.


 * Abyss I.R. came in; Prim mentions the rumors of her being the descendant of the mage that served the infamous Lord Hedgehog (mothy had this really planned out...).


 * Abyss I.R. completed her training and gave her the Venom Sword for her visit to Lucifenia; she had her brief romance with Arth.


 * Quote of her saying "I did it, I beat Anne!" after she discovered her pregnancy with Arth's kid while Anne was having relationship problems.


 * Prim's power stride seems to go full force after that.


 * Anne visits Marlon and brings up marrying Riliane and Kyle.


 * Prim seems to have not wanted to have Riliane and her "beloved" child marry because of Riliane being the spawn of Anne; she also seemed bothered that Arth seemed to have this idea (meaning the engagement must have happened before Arth's death).


 * Apparently, this is where Anne decides to use the Glass to kill off Arth and begin her power trip to the top of Marlon and eventually Evillious with Kyle as the King.


 * "N-Ney... Why..." Final words, Prim!


 * Demon of Pride (I think?) offers to lend Kyle some of its power to defeat the DoG possessed Ney (It says the common "leave it to me" line that the Demons seem to all say).


 * Kyle refuses and the Demon calls him "boring as always" before ignoring him again.


 * It seems Germaine and Rin could both see Allen, based on the text, but I'd need to double check the dialogue. Either way, I know Germaine says "Idiot brooooother" just before she skewers the cat.


 * I can confirm that Ghoula/Gula/Goula was happening in the Blood Pool region for Ney to build up her Dead Soldier armies.


 * Keel's donations helped build the Held monastery, which means we should check how to place this in the timeline compared to when Keel could afford building such a monastery (I think Yvette says "ten years after" but that wouldn't match up with the timeline).


 * The monastery has an on-site orphanage, field (they also make wine); also, a bakery(?) at its entrance.


 * There is a legend about a Demon at the Anynomous Coast.


 * The contents of Abyss I.R.'s experiments may have been compared to the "torture" of Lord Hedgehog.


 * The sound of Heartbeat Clocktower's (Castle) second hand can be heard ringing from the main gate.


 * It seems to have a special structure so you can't hear it in the place closest to the clock on the top floor (convenient...).


 * To support the theory that Lord Hedgehog was a twisted man(変態?) who loves torture, the windows of the tower's spiral staircase were all fitted with iron bars.


 * Lioness city was the residence of the Lioness (family?) who were destroyed two hundred years ago (EC 325-505 is about 180 so that's a fair rough estimate).


 * Castle Lioness if famous for its beautiful rose garden; there's a lot of flora in Lioness and it's become a resort for aristocracy and royalty now.


 * Lioness family's nobles loved roses from generation to generation; the Lioness family's lord made a beautiful rose garden there.


 * Germaine gave her Almoga Mobarez mask/disguise to add to Keel's collection.


 * Arkatoir seems to be a Marlon parliment official (so they had a parliment); it seems Keel used Gerda to force Kyle and Arkatoir into meeting.


 * Gerda's an elderly servant that's served the Freesis family for many years; she's the tallest of the servants and has really good physique; Yukina describes her like that of a demon (well Yukina... maybe you should tell her that!).


 * Abyss I.R. and Gumillia seem to have quite the battle; whips and evil singing and levitation and stuff.


 * Anne is a good violinist.

Some of this is miscellaneous but a lot of this (at least with how Prim orders things) means we'll be doing more rearranging for the sequence of events. If I had 300p scans (or better yet... a transcription!) I could probably mine more from the text. Unfortunately, the scans we do have are missing a few pages for some parts so I can't check the events.
