"Of course, your highness. And it's good for you to show interest in the city's faith and spiritual health, as well. Some of this city's residents are shockingly lax with their sacrifices, especially those of Immonian heritage. They are weakening this city at a time it cannot afford so. The nomads of the Sea still remember the Conqueror, and fondly for the death he wrought, and they speak of his return, sooner than Ecbatana's ready." That, of course, is Aikobaz' nominal grandfather. So perhaps she could comment on that. Or possibly his disdain towards the refugees who entered with nothing.
"Oh, you don't need to worry about that." Aiko beams, hands behind her back in her best attempt at looking coy despite the heavy subject. "That's my gram-gram you're talking about. As good as he was at conquering stuff, there's bound to be a little bit of it in me, right? And I'm not going to let this city get hurt, whether it's feeling especially spiritual or not!"
Her smile fades a little as she lets that statement sink in. "...But... I'd still like for us all to have a good, solid church here, too." She continues. "So if we're having any problems with that... please, do tell."
