Ysian Face/Eye Coverings

Why do the Ysians cover their faces and/or eyes? How do they "see"?

They are not allowed to look upon their Queen, Euryalia, as She is always watching.

They are simply trained from an early age to use their other senses in battle. I won't deny there's a little sorcery involved, mind. Remember that the Ysians are master flesh-crafters...

Makes sense. I suspected that it was a boon granted by Kernunnos in return for their devout service - heightened senses. Good to see it works as a racial advantage on the unit profiles. Many, if not all, are blessed with Sightless Strike. That is good.
