Linhardt & Flayn C

Flayn
Now, then. Where is that book on dance...

Linhardt
Hello, Flayn. I'm curious if you could confirm some suspicions I have.

Flayn
Hello, Linhardt. What is it?

Linhardt
I've recently been lost in study on the topic of Saint Cethleann. You're familiar with her life, yes?

Flayn
I know a little of her, as do many. But what does this have to do with me?

Linhardt
Interesting that you would ask that. Your question betrays your understanding of my inquiry.

Flayn
I am quite certain that it does not, as a matter of fact.

Linhardt
I have interviewed several members of the academy and the monastery. All agree that you have trouble focusing on detail-oriented work.

Linhardt
As I mentioned, I have been carefully researching Saint Cethleann's history, and I found several intriguing anecdotes concerning her life.

Linhardt
Granted, it is not stated explicitly in the texts, but it is easy enough to read between the lines and get to the underlying truth.

Linhardt
The authors of several tomes, all written within 50 years of Saint Cethleann's passing, imply she found it difficult to maintain focus on detail-oriented tasks.

Linhardt
Then, just this morning, as I was studying statues of Saint Cethleann, I came to realize how similar her visage is to your own. Interesting, no?

Flayn
I do not appreciate your disrespectful approach to this topic.

Linhardt
No disrespect intended, I assure you. Saint Cethleann is a major saint. I only mean to say that looking like her is an honor.

Flayn
I actually meant that you are being disrespectful to Saint Cethleann.

Linhardt
There was one other item...

Flayn
If you must...

Linhardt
You are quite skilled in white magic, yes? My understanding is that you have a very high affinity for the art.

Flayn
Yes, I do. I am confident in my abilities.

Flayn
I am glad of my abilities, for it is a way in which I am able to help others.

Linhardt
Indeed! Once more, an echo of Saint Cethleann. I'm so curious as to why such similarities exist...

Linhardt
Her Crest... Perhaps hereditary traits, then? Or is it possible I am allowing myself to see patterns where there are none? Hmm...

Flayn
I am very busy searching for a book.

Flayn
I will be going now.
