IIRC it has to do with her religious beliefs.

Apparently she's a member of the Five Great Gods Religion, and they're typically zealots.

They also worship those with the divine protection of one of these gods, like Rou.

I think this, coupled with his immense strength...makes her act this way. Anything that he touches basically becomes a potential object of worship to him I think, which is why she does what she does to the utensils he uses when he first meets her. ^^

Also, I think it may be hinted at that she actually DOES do that at one point in the story after the shortly coup...but I don't think it's ever said  explicitly . The author purposefully left it vague, I think, heh. XD
