Sister:

“The younger sister of The Strange Specter of Celestial Severance. She’s one of those dead-serious model students, but she takes good care of her elder sister.”
“Come on, big sis, let’s go!”

Steeds:

“She uses cucumbers and eggplants.”

TL note: This card is a reference to the Bon Festival, which also happens to be celebrated around the time this pack is being released. The spirits of one’s ancestors are welcomed to the world of the living for a brief visit, after which they return to the other world. It’s customary to make a horse figure out of a cucumber (a fast ride for the spirits to arrive to our world quickly), and a bull figure out of an eggplant (a slow ride for the spirits to have a safe trip on their way back). Each animal can be seen in their respective artwork.
The note about her yelling at her sister that they need to go is likely referencing that it’s time for them to return to the world of the living, but her sister is still lingering in the graveyard.
