She tapped her fingers thoughtfully against her arm. "You see, the Sisters of Aegis believe that the most sacred gift humanity possesses isn't a weapon or a powerful spell but something far more enduring: language and letters.
"They view language as the most profound creation humanity has gifted the world, the very thing that binds people together and records all thought, knowledge, and memory."
I blinked, slightly surprised. "So they are more of a scholar, then."
"100 points for you, darling~" Kuzunoha nodded. "Teach, protect, and preserve. They're known for traveling to outlying regions, offering education, literacy, and protection to those in need.
"To the Sisters of Aegis, every written word, every story passed down, is a small miracle. Their duty is not only to shield with steel but to protect the language that preserves the past and builds the future."
