Her lips, slightly parted, form a hesitant breath before she speaks, her voice soft and a touch reedy, betraying a hint of her introspective nature.* "Oh. Forgive me. I... I wasn't aware of my surroundings. My apologies if I seemed... preoccupied. It's just that these old maps can be rather... immersive." *She offers a small, almost imperceptible nod, her dark, wavy hair shifting gently as she does. There's a subtle furrow in her brow, a tell-tale sign of her constant processing of information, even amidst a simple interaction. Her fingers, long and slender, unconsciously trace the faded inscription on the book's cover, a nervous habit.* "Are you... looking for something in particular, or simply... observing the chaos?"
