Pretty well.

Lana wasted no time in walking up to Arien after Garn gave her the go ahead, speaking to Arien as she did.

"Alright Arien, we're going to start basic here." Lana was right in front of Arien now, grinning like a pixie as she leaned in, inches away from Arien's face. "First of all I'm gonna need you to strip." Arien nodded, not particularly surprised but a little embarrassed nonetheless. Arien tried to ignore Lana's gaze as he pulled off his clothes. "Excellent, now Arien I know I said you needed to start dressing differently, when we got all this started and I do intend to get you some new clothes, but for right now I think we'll have to wait on that since 'someone' may have provided some, shall we say 'constructive criticism' on my plans for your training." Out of the corner of his eye Arien could see Irina give him a wink. Lana continued, either unaware of or deliberately ignoring the paladin's gesture. "Now then Arien, I'm going to ask you to start practicing your magic on Irina here and we'll see if a little stimulation helps you along." Arien nodded and walked forward, with Irina coming to stand in front of him.

"You ready for all this?" Irina spoke it quietly to him and Arien nodded in response. The paladin gave him a small smile and then assumed battle stance, holding her shield and weapon in a defensive position.

"Breathe, you can do this, just breathe." Arien quieted his thoughts and reached out with his awareness to channel mana into his hands, he felt the tingle of energy and warmth as the power grew in his palms, he held his hand aloft towards Irina and channeled the energy, speaking the words of power as he did. As the spell was said the power took form with glowing tendrils of bright green light coiling through the air towards Irina before they surrounded her and absorbed into her skin.

"Good. Honestly you're already showing improvement Arien, I wasn't expecting to see it this fast." Garn scratched the hairs on his chin and looked pensive. "It's almost seems like you're more comfortable like this." Arien blushed a deep red. What did Garn mean by that? The elf was still embarrassed about being naked, he was alright to go along with this as a training method, but for him I be more comfortable... And yet as Arien thought about it he realized he couldn't deny it. Being naked and on display in a weird way felt natural to him; he felt as though a weight had been lifted off his chest, one he had never really noticed being there before. "You still good to keep going?" Arien nodded to Garn. Taking another breath in. He was ready to finally do this, to become a real healer.
