"I can come up with [i]plenty[/i] of uses for a painting like that," the girl remarked, which was an odd statement given her apparent age, "But it's absolutely not the sort of thing a knightly order should be trafficking in. We have some standards to maintain, and not being purveyors of inexplicably detailed obscenity is one of those."

Tyaethe kicked her legs absent-mindedly as Steffen kept talking. "So... nobody has already shown up? There hasn't been a surge in people talking about rabbits? It's not that they would be a problem..." well, probably? Taking on total strangers there was no easy way to send home until Merilia came to pick them up again was a bit beyond the order's usual remit, but it was hardly like sheltering another person would be much of a burden to them. "But if she hasn't send another problematic painting over, and there hasn't been a sign of any sort of Akitsushiman walking around Candaeln, then [i]why[/i] have people been talking about Merilia so much? She's not exactly popular."
