As soon as self-esteem was called into the conversation, she felt herself slip a bit. She found it difficult, sometimes, to see her true worth.
While she hadn't been an arrogant youth, she had been stubborn and perhaps had fallen prey to the feeling of being entitled. The day she and Valravn had been held back from the Seafoam Run, her existance had been shaken. Doubt settled in, of course, and it still ran through her like an underground spring. But she'd learned a very important lesson in humility, something she would also need.
She found it hard not to find doubt even if everyone else had confidence in her. A great deal of pressure came with having to make decisions for others and use their trust as an investment. "So...If dey doubt, I must listen?" She implored quietly. "An' what if dey do not doubt...An' I do something wrong. Will dey forgive?"

It can be assumed that if Chacal is speaking, she will be singing. Her speaking patterns will always have a melodic quality to them.
