Can -Hime- be trusted on her statement?

Remember the whole visitor's event that we were speculating about. She said point blank: It is not masteria.

Exactly.

I don't know -Hime- at all but apparently sometimes it's not her that's wrong it's the players' own stupidity and denialism. They try and look way too into some of the things she says and what they want to believe we're going to get as far as content, then everything turns into a monster of derp.
