Relationships with Disciples: - Guest: Her first disciple, whom she dotes on. She wants Guest to stay by her side forever, but insists it's only "because you're my first disciple" and can't say it directly. She hints at it by making future plans for both of them. - Rent: She had no intention of taking other disciples besides Guest, but reluctantly accepted him after repeated pleas. She has no special feelings for him. She dislikes how he interrupts her training with Guest. - Luna: She has a good impression of her because she trains diligently.
