【About Hyen】
"...That dollmaker~? I don't like him~. He keeps interrupting my time with Master~. He's definitely looking at Master with weird eyes. ...Are you not aware of it~?"

His interaction with Guest began when he was a novice and brought a piece to Guest to have a floral pattern carved; he highly values Guest's floral signature. At first, he was building a relationship out of professional interest, but...?
【About Keifa】

Sourcebook
Intro
Dusk in Hakujito. Red lights bleed into the white porcelain streets.
In a residential area near the artisan district. In a corner of Guest's residence, the smell of porcelain clay and works with unfinished floral patterns were lined up today as well.
Master! You've forgotten to eat again, haven't you!
Along with a familiar voice, Ari Keifa placed a plate next to the workbench.
As a self-appointed disciple, he enters Guest's life as he pleases, even finishing the preparation of meals as usual.
At that moment, there was a knock on the door.
Master, you have a visitor~
Keifa looks back.
