Hm? 'Ardbert' looks back. "Of course I know what a piano is!" Most of the First was swallowed by the Flood by the time Irhya should have seen it. So PROVE HIM WRONG. Though he does continue. "But I don't think I've seen one which looks like that before." ...Probably not true in Elidibus' case. But it at least seems to balance why Ardbert might have been looking in that direction.

But sure, let's move on! Fortunately, the Warrior of Light's ardent plea to be believed in regards to financial stability offers a good way to cause a distraction from further discussion about pianos. There's a very notable arch of an eyebrow and the touch of an amused smile. Elidibus noticed the intensity. "Of course. A well-traveled young woman such as yourself, probably has picked up a few lessons in crafting on the way?"

Good job, Elidibus. That was almost quite like Ardbert.

"Or is it the compulsion to reach beyond your means that's the problem?"

...AND a double entendre that is a little bit more like Elidibus, despite the sense of 'jest' in which it's couched.
