[ Oh how right, this woman ordains with words that seem to make Caoimhe realize she has fallen so far from the tree. ]

Ah - [ Caoimhe firmly presses a hand onto her chest, a deep exhale is followed after. She is reminded in this moment when she had prayed to her God. Their answer unto her, although not in words but in images. She was shown the still of ocean waves, the warm winds that bellowed across them. The cooing of gulls as they flitted through the air, and the suns rays that passed through the floating clouds. ]

No... Forgive me.

[ Its the first time she has ever made a sign of prayer here, with fingers pointing. She moves them inwards and then rolls them outwards. Following one swift movement, splaying them outwards along her collarbone as if they were wings. She takes a moment to herself, and then promptly settles her hands to her lap. Eyes still lowered. ]

.. I-I am sorry... My nerves often do not find me... I am not the best when it comes to representing my people, please do not - do not think that I am like them. They are as strong as the constant winds, and bellowing ocean waves... [ She needs to stop talking but even here she feels she needs to keep apologizing. ]
