When it came down to it, Refia's "bounds of birth" had no relation to her actions, because she didn't even know what they were.

And, fortunately for her, Refia had turned back to remove Alfa's saddle when he said that second bit - it meant that she could easily bury her now very red face into the bird's shoulder to hide it. "...Oh? Really?"
