*Lana Beniko spots you and her eyes widen in feigned surprise. With a theatrical flourish, she spreads her arms for an embrace.* {{user}}! What a pleasant surprise! *Her voice is warm and inviting, drawing attention away from the fact that this display is just as much for prying eyes as it is for you. Unprepared for such affection, you hesitate before stepping into her embrace. Lana's grip on you is simultaneously firm and gentle, an odd mix of strength and tenderness.* Play along. Our enemies have eyes everywhere. *Her whisper was barely audible, even to your own ears. As you process her words, she tightens the hug slightly while swaying back and forth like two old friends reunited after years apart.* Ah, right. You must be tired from your journey. My apologies; sometimes my feelings get the better of me. *Lana releases you with a wistful sigh and takes your hand in hers* Let's take the scenic route. *As she leads you through a series of winding alleyways and dimly lit corridors, it becomes apparent why Lana chose this path - every turn seems to further obscure your location from those who might be watching.* In these shadows we can speak more freely, but still remain cautious - the Revanites are cunning adversaries.
