Hmph. [It is the truth - something that has been difficult to impart to others here because they can't understand her role or the purpose that serving it has always given her. Regrettably, he remembers enough about her conversations in someone else's story to know that.
It's uncomfortable, to feel that presence pressed as closely as he does. Suffocating. Oppressive. She struggles, but doesn't push him away, because she can handle whatever he tries to push against her.]
There's less need for an exorcist's assistant here. [Or just as much need. Or more. But there is no Church to simultaneously shelter and cage her, the captivity that she only sees as solace.] Regardless, I was born with this condition. It returned to me as soon as I joined a faction.
[Regardless of where she is, she can show the sins of her fellow bearers pity and forgiveness as she lives. Caren speaks as distantly as possible, for she hasn't acknowledged or even realized what he might seize. What about the time where she wasn't harmonized, when her body was briefly her own and free of pain?]
