Actually Inferni was much more lax in its structure than what she was used to. There were too many hours of the day to herself. She was used to having nearly every single hour of the day planned and out scheduled for her. Here she was left to her own devices. She was free to choose what she wanted to do and when she wanted to do it. She wasn't used to such freedoms. She wasn't used to having to make choices for herself. Actually she would rather Inferni had more structure than it had. She wished for firmer rules in place rather than the ambiguous ones that she had been given. She hadn't even found any group activities either when she was used to meeting with everyone of la Chemin in a large group every single day. In Inferni she had yet to meet everyone since there weren't any daily gatherings that she was used to attending.

"I am. I come from la Chemin. Everyone used to gather together every single day but there have been no group activities called here. There have been no messengers passing out the leadership's word of activities that must be completed in a certain time frame. Everyone seems absorbed in their own thing rather than there being a ritual of something that is shared together as a whole. In la Chemin I was in the group that would go out and hunt daily. We would bring back enough for everyone to eat and the entirety of la Chemin would sit together and share the meal. There hasn't been any of that here." The few that she had met already she hadn't had the opportunity to run into again. So it was quite different from what she was used to. She was used to seeing the same faces daily rather than it being as interspersed as it was here in Inferni.

"Tattoo?" The word was entirely foreign to her. Willam glanced up to the other woman's face before looking back to the marking on her chest once again. Slowly she moved closer to be able to see it better. "So everyone in your family has one of these?" In la Chemin everyone had taken on the surname of la Chemin to show that they belonged to the same place. "Does it have any other meaning than just showing what family you belong to? In la Chemin we all took on the name of la Chemin as our surnames to show that we are part of the group. It means the way as we all are raised with the same belief and walk the same path towards eternity together." She didn't necessarily believe that the female had any interest in what she was saying but it was the only thing that Willam could come up with to give a bit of background on herself that would tie into the discussion at hand. Willam knew already that she didn't have any sort of importance in Inferni and because of that she didn't believe that any could ever take any sort of interest in anything that dealt with her. It was why she also lacked any sort of connection that she would consider a friendship. But that wasn't too different from la Chemin for she had only developed only a single relationship there that she would call a friendship. That didn't mean that she didn't like the others. No, she liked everyone but they were all just friendly working relationships to her.
