Good good, another one for the team! 

Really, there's a big point in there. Peorth is, how can I put this, 
'conniving'. She's playing the game. Skuld is a subtle as a speeding 
bus. Peorth goes in for the whole "overly sexy" thing a lot, 
something I can never imagine Skuld doing. In that way Peorth is very 
much the version 2.0 of what Fujishima-sensei first tried to do with 
Urd in chapter 14. Urd is now a very different character to what she 
was back then, and I think Peorth was an attempt to recapture that 
essence, and she does the job better than Urd, who works better the 
way she is now. Coming at it from that angle, I can't see anyone 
thinking Skuld as an adult will be anything like Urd was in chapter 
14! 

He, case closed.  ^_^
