Krik watched a little suspiciously as the mud headed off towards the cafeteria but decided not to worry about it. It wasn't at all his problem, and if the native did blow up Rupture Farms after Krik had left the only thing he would lose would be Dionysia, which, he mused, wouldn't be a particularly great loss.
