On that I would beg to differ. In my own world, I serve a master myself, who would never dream of so casually making the demands on me, or on any of her servants, as this place imposes on shinki. There are servants and servants, and the role of a shinki has much more in common with a trusted manservant than that of a maid of all work, to be summoned and dismissed. No wise master would so thoroughly disregard the strengths and talents of those who must serve them so closely.
Perhaps I differ simply in that I know what it is to serve a wise master.
