He'd never interacted with Lara one on one, but thanks to her presence on Prespian City as the one who managed the yearly recruitment events he was well aware of who she was.
"Oh, reports of my death have been greatly exaggerated," Lara replied sweetly, leaning against some piece of equipment in the brig. "A shame the same can't be said for the rest of your species… Oh well, who's going to care about a few trees, anyway?"
It was hard for Akash to keep his cool in the face of statements like that, but he managed. It was clear that the girl was trying to rile him up for some reason, and she wasn't going to give her the satisfaction, no matter how much she dug at him.
