Shortcut to data in ADLS Gen2

Hi,

I have just started exploring fabric. I want to explore the data engineering experience. My data is in ADLS Gen2. I would like to load, transform using spark jobs - write it lakehouse in delta format. Later I want to connect my PowerBi to the same.

I am using the Fabric trial capacity which is in the Southeast Asia region. My ADLS Gen2 account is in the eastus region. I understand that all items created in my workspace will belong to the the Southeast Asia region. So if I implement a spark job to read data via a shortcut to the ADLS Gen2, it will in effect transfer data across regions. Will I be charged the across region transfers in this case- even though my workspace is using the trial capacity?

Please help me understand this better to avoid any inadvertent billing.
