The Art of Speaking
Concept: In Ravok Valerius was a cryptographer and a doctor’s assistant who helped his superiors experiment on Kelvic. Occasionally he would take on a student and tutor them in a subject of their choice, but that was always more of a hobby than a proper job, a way to pass the time.
In Kenash though he has decided to make that the main source of his income, but not out of a desire to help. To him, teaching is a way to get to know the next generation to rule the city and possibly shape them, a way to establish connections with those that really matter.
Valerius Nitrozian does not teach maths, writing, history or even geography. He expects his students to already have some manner of basic education. He does not have any patience for bumbling idiots.
He does not teach his students how to speak the Common tongue, but he teaches them to speak it properly and use it to the highest effect possible.
He teaches them the art of rhetorics.
Although he does have a small office in Kenash, Valerius will usually visit his students at home.
