To turn things around a bit (rather than Claire being under someone else's wing) Maqali is a kid who could use a bit of education on the real world. She's pretty blind to some of the harsher realities of life in Eorzea (e.g. she thinks Garlemald is friendly and only wants to help keep Eorzea safe, though she's smart enough now to realize this is not a popular point of view). She's made a number of friends who are helping her learn to fight and hunt, but no one yet who can help take off those rose-tinted glasses. Just a thought to consider, if you think Claire could be fun to play as a mentor too
