So after last time we got Hartmut, we get another flavor of Hartmut?

Or is this one more Mangelica with the whole 'no thought, just vibe'

If they're going to be an Angelica-type, it's going to be hard work - there aren't any doors to guard in a forest!

Oh boy, the potential threats just keep coming. It's easy to say everyone is welcome, but these particular winged newcomers were being violent, so I'm not so sure it's fine to let them stay unlike the priest and his guard. The people of the village might not be able to handle the situation if it ever becomes violent. And the guy never promised the safety of the village, only Lerunda.

In the best case, the village grows to become a diverse little town united with respect for Lerunda, but in the worst case, distrust and cultural friction turns into violent conflict that will tear the village apart. It's hard to feel at ease when there's a potential powder keg of conflict building too quickly, without time to let bonds of trust form between people. The people of the village might think things are happening too fast with more and more weird strangers who keep showing up. I only hope there's no painful lesson waiting for Lerunda from this.

Strangely enough, these total strangers feel an urge to get close to her, but there was no such effect on the humans Lerunda used to live with.

That's where I disagree.

The charm effect seems to work only on beings aligned with the god she's "representing". The griffins, the winged people, spirits... The humans and elves definitely aren't affected. The only two humans who seem to be, to some extent, are simply expressing their personal feelings instead of being affected by the miko's "charm". As for the elves, they tolerated her to some extent because of their link with the spirits. And they were about to sacrifice her whole community to the spirit-eater. Even the beastmen only accepted her initially because of her familiarity with the griffin family, not the miko's charm.

At this stage, the charm and insight effects seem limited to her own person and a few specific species. So, she's naive if she thinks she can rely on them blindly. They can be a good indicator for an initial approach, but they definitely aren't reliable as the only basis for her decisions.

Now I’m not sure about the elves, not being charmed by her. Because they very quickly went from we’re gonna kill all of you and we won’t feel bad about it to let’s fight together, even though we think it’s hopeless. The entire strategy of the tribe changed after one conversation with this little girl. A lot of people back, then were saying it was bad writing that he was so easily convinced. But if it was the charm effect in place, even if it’s to a less degree then we see other people/species being charmed, that could make a lot of sense
