[It’s just as sad as it sounds. All of Kazimierz was depressing oppressive capitalismm, and he hated it. It’s likely why his own crime is treason- he didn’t act to stop this decline, yet still stands with those who oppose it.

Still, Młynar finds himself genuinely surprised by how intelligent Rinoa is proving to be. First, she seemed like a silly girl. Then, she had shown a teasing side. Now, she's able to grasp the nuances of the metabolisms between different races on Terra. It’s quite impressive, and definitely not what he had expected from the girl.]

Right on all counts, including how common it is. One of my fellow knights even called it “feeding the flames of his bravery.”

[The Kuranta most certainly did not eat hay and grass. If she had asked, she would have discovered that apples were Młynar’s favorite food. When he had traveled as a knight-errant, he had become close friends with a farmer who would give him some each time he came by. Unfortunately, the old woman perished during a raid after his deployment, but he would always enjoy one in her memory.]

I’m surprised to hear that you spend much time around fighters though. You… don’t seem like the kind to spend time in combat.
