Lana greeted them all at Portalocity with a huge smile and a huge crate. "Since you all seem to have no problem with heights, we're going to extremes today, so rather than have you all purchase ridiculous amounts of Earth equipment, I've brought some from home. I hope you all wore comfortable shirts and trousers to go under it, as I ~~handwavily~~ suggested."

She opened the crate and started passing out hooded jumpsuits of a dirty white colour with straps to secure them everywhere. Everyone also got a face mask equipped with breathing apparatus and comm unit. "These will keep us warm and alive and let us communicate more easily." She put on her own to demonstrate how it worked for those of the students who hadn't been to Hoth before. When they were all done, she nodded to the gnomes, and their portal opened up. Lana stepped through.

"Welcome to the highest location on Earth, Mount Everest. It's almost 9,000 meters above sea level, and is normally only accessible by experienced climbers with a lot of specialized equipment and a month or two to spare. And quite a few of them still die," she noted. "So please be careful. But it is a spectacular view, isn't it?"

"Oh, I, uh--" She ducked her head again. "I mean if--I wouldn't wanna intrude--but maybe if--"

She sputtered a bit longer. "Umm. Maybe some time?" she said, to both offers.

Lana held up her hands. "No pressure at all. It's just an offer I've made to several of my friends and students over the years. And it stands; there's no time frame."

Arden nodded. "Thanks for the offer no matter what," she said, unable to keep the caution out of her tone. But that was just because she was Arden, really.

Lana could respect that. She nodded back. "You're welcome."
