——Moderation.
Having heard only the first painting's critique, Yanis immediately understood Aiwass's aesthetic preference.
Moderation is not a derogatory term. It is the very Path of Beauty she herself adheres to.
The Path of Beauty subtly influences one at a material level, allowing their image and temperament to gradually align towards their ideal "epitome of beauty." Yanis was not particularly tall among humans, nor short among elves; her physique blurred the characteristics of both male and female, and her facial temperament could not be considered mature but also not naive.
Because "moderate aesthetics" is the most universally appealing aesthetic.
This was Yanis's personal understanding of the "Path of Beauty." It was also the reason why she walked the Path of Balance.
