["One of many" could mean anything. He could mean he is no high priest, no famed man in his own world, or he could mean that... there are more holy men in this place than she thought. She only knew one, personally... and a god of laws and cities of another world was of little comfort to her. Not that the gods of her own world did any better. What god had ever answered the prayers of a jinba?

She still thinks he looks too strange to be a priest, but in a place like this... She had to believe much of what she is told at face value, with no way to refute it. Until that is...

He gives his name. She does not recognize it, not exactly, but the sounds... are strung together in the proper way, it sounds- It sounds like a man's name, a proper name, unlike things she is told here to call people. (Robles? Gabriel? Liem? Dextera?) And yet- a Japanese man who was six feet tall with black and white hair? Surely impossible. (If you don't know how FGO works.)]


You have a clan name, that is noble enough.

[Buying time, she mutters something to that effect. The Ashiya... did she know any Ashiya? If they were real, they did not send any representatives to her master's auctions.]

I am no lady. You may call me Hayame.

[Breeding stable jinba did not have a second name. To her, polite titles such as Miss or Lady only served to remind her what she was, and she did not fancy them. But... Fine, she will test him. Sure she is going to be disappointed, she continues,]

I am sure you can guess why.

[She could not read herself, but she had been told what the characters carved on her stall had mean. "As quick as a fish in water". 速魚.]
