<Snipped quote by Gate Keeper>

How does he fit into all this?

Is it still but a scratch?

Indeed, tis but a scratch.

Or possibly a symbol that not all male characters need be womanizers?
A stance against the notion of knights coming from only from Caucasian ancestry?
A subtly racist hint at the concept of ethnic subservience between races?
A proud representation of two different kinds of people working together as a team, one wielding their social influence as effectively as the other wields a sword?

...Or just a picture?
