The village she’d grown up in had been remote, after all. Rare were there ever visitors and outsiders, and while she’d gotten used to people stumbling in over the years now, she’d hardly been in the right from of mind to regard them.]
I don’t sleep. I don’t think. [Did she sleep? There were moments of ‘oblivion’, but the passage of time was so strange for her now. Sae places a hand to her head and shakes it slowly, trying to just— remember. Basic things were lost on her. Her body felt so heavy. Was being alive always such a burden?
Oh. Names. Right. She lowers her hand and blinks slowly.] ...Sorry. I’m not— I’m not usually this— [Disoriented? Slow?? Rude??? She can’t bow very well here, but she still places her hands on the ground in front of her and turns as much as she can to bow low against the floor]
