"Ah. Thank you, Ma'am, Seneschal Hart." Dirt Nap says softly, seeming embarrassed at the compliment. "I generally as a rule do my best not to hurry along a person I consider to be a fool into a bad situation. I kind of justified it in this case, that it was for the good of the Covenant, even if that wouldn't be the main reason he went for it. I do believe the flattery had more to do with it. When I think someone is a fool, I generally just try to stay out of their way, not hurting them, and not getting close enough to get dragged down with them." He explains himself.
Dirt Nap nods at her advice. "I do believe that's the right way, mentioning it to Ms. Durant, at least.

"Tell the truth, I'm thinking that there isn't anybody I know who might teach me, that I have a confidence will be around long enough to do the job proper. I'm thinking I best crack the books and learn up on Geomancy."
