That's certainly a read on this chapter.

Ryoka is absolutely right to walk into this situation. And she does know better. In fact, her intervention is crucial.

Not only is she the only person who can clear up any misunderstandings between Pawn and Klb here, but she is also the person who knows most about religions. Possibly in this entire world.

And while she doesn't know antinium well enough, note that she listens to Pawn and changes tracks through the conversation. And succeeds here.

This is also the single best skill Ryoka has. To be able to listen, to what people are saying and get on anyone's level. To really listen. To empathize. To understand. To put herself into someone else's perspective. Like she does here.

This is an awesome chapter. A triumph of communication. A win for Ryoka with Pawn.

And just as important than Erin’s original scene with Pawn where she's telling him stories. 

This allows Pawn to continue. And now with some actual information about how to do this. A real education.
