Erin makes a soft sound of amusement. "Helena, my little bird...there's no universe where my past and present aren't relevant to your question. I'm not putting myself down here. I'm just thinking." She goes quiet for a minute, and then, quoting: "For all have sinned, and fallen short of the glory of God. A lot of people think that way. Hell, I still think that way sometimes, and I hate it. People walk around with the injuries and iniquities of having to be a real person in a physical body and they go, you cannot wash blood from silk; I am tainted and lowly, unworthy and vile. I was told something different, when I finally took help. They said to me: what's gold stays gold, no matter how hard you beat it."
Erin's poetic phrasing gets her in trouble a lot, but something tells her that Helena will grasp the idea.
