The title may be an homage to the 1994 film "Immortal Beloved". This biography of Ludwig von Beethoven concerns a letter found after his death, addressed to his secret immortal beloved.
The "new" Xena kills less often than then "old" Xena, but still quite often. In this episode she kills two harpies (non-humans count too) by burning them alive, Atyminius (who's alive again so it counts too) by impaling him with her sword, and Marcus (who's alive again for a limited time) with a dagger. The "new" Xena's body-count after this episode is 28.
