Rising from her seat, she turns and heads toward one of the studies, glancing back only once to be sure he was indeed following. The study itself is nothing special, full of the same expansive windows as the rest of the house, the furniture all in rich but elegant colors, all of it well-maintained over the years. One of the interior walls is lined with shelves sporting a few books, a handful of small art pieces, nothing particularly striking, until she walks to the farthest left shelf and pulls it forward, the fixture swinging out as easily as if she were using the Force to move it.

"After you," she says with a mischievous smile as she steps back to let him pass through the 'hidden' door and into the library -- it's only hidden from this entrance, a large set of glass doors leading out onto a balcony offering another way inside.
