002 ▲ action (traverse town, closed to a_la_turk)

[Zelda has yet to venture off to another world, choosing to get her bearings on Traverse Town before she begins exploring other places. So much of these worlds are new to her, especially the technology. Today, she's ventured to the Third District, stepping quietly through the district square. It doesn't take long for a small crowd of Heartless to appear around her, instantly putting her on alert. She hadn't expected to deal with any of these creatures, but here they are, nevertheless.

Despite being in clear danger, she remains calm, watching the creatures cautiously. She's prepared to move at any moment. The instant the creatures start in towards her, Zelda fluidly reaches a hand skyward, vanishing from that spot and reappearing in another in a flash of green light. For a moment, she wrestles with the decision: run or fight?]

[ A fight with the Heartless in the Third District is exactly what Valeria is looking for after exhausting those she could find in the Second District. In the two and a half weeks since her arrival in Traverse Town, she's taken to hunting as regularly as she collects information from the town's denizens and the network with the former providing her income, experience, and much needed information about these new and unfamiliar enemies that threaten not only the peace of the worlds, but their very existence. Today's hunt is no different from that of any other day except that she has yet to meet her daily earning quota and she's got her eyes on a particular drop, namely a Lucid Shard or two. She's quick to turn the corner upon reaching the bottom of the stairway and steps into the square only to pause at the scene before her. The potential drops can wait; the woman's safety is her first concern and she wastes no time sending a well-placed Fira spell flying into the group to provide a temporary distraction. It works well enough, tugging the Heartless' attention between the two and thereby buying them a little time to decide on a course of action. ]

Hey, are you alright? If you need a hand, I've got two and don't mind lending them.

[ Two hands that are drawing several knives from beneath her suit jacket even as she speaks. The Turk takes several steps toward the woman and halts, her posture suggesting she's ready to move and faster at a moment's notice. She's got no intention of allowing the Heartless to lay a claw on this woman, after all, and it shows in just how quick she is to let four knives fly and throw a recovering Soldier off balance. ]
