Where: The Emerald Sanctum
When: Let's go with Today
Warnings: DISNEY

[This....really wasn't Traverse Town.]

[Sora stood at the mouth of a cave in Emerald Sanctum, trying to retrace his steps mentally. He scratches at his head, thinking outloud]

I left Yen Sid's tower, and then...everything got went all bizarre and there were these guys in cloaks-

[But not the Organization cloaks either. He sighs and shakes his head. Maybe he should have paid more attention to what those cloak guys were saying. He's not sure what he was doing here. Then again, he was partly just glad it didn't look like the World that Never Was again.]

Maybe I should just ask someone...

[And he decides to do just that, looking around the Sanctum he looks for someone to bother. The sleeping ones he decides to leave alone, but when he spots someone awake, he'll walk straight up to them in a very friendly manner and smile]

Hiya! Sorry to bother ya, but can you tell me where I am?

[The hunter sits at the base of a tree, a faint scraping sound accompanying each careful and deliberate stroke he makes with stone against arrowhead. He's got a good number of them in a pile beside either side of him, one for sharpened and one for what he hasn't finished yet. Up in the branches above, an eagle sits, golden brown in color. It tilts its head at the boy who comes up towards them.

The blond doesn't answer immediately, giving one final pass with the whetstone before he lifts the head up for inspection.]

...the Emerald Sanctum.

[It seems he was listening, at least. He lowers the arrow beside him and shifts his pale gaze towards Sora. Another new one, then.]

[Sora tilted his head a little. He's not unused to people being preoccupied in what they're doing when talking to him. Cid was always busy with some computer thing, and who knows half the time where Merlin's head was half the time when you spoke with him. So Jacques working on what he's working on hardly bothers him]

The Emerald Sanctum? What's that?

[He's also curious to what Jacques is making, and tries getting a better look at the pile. Sure, he's seen arrows before- buuut that was mostly when they were being fired at him- never in the arrowhead form]

...no one's told you yet?

[Then again, Morpheus would probably be asleep, and the number of Greensworn in general is fairly small compared to the other flights...

Jacques picks up another arrow, carefully fingering the edge of its head before he applies the stone to it.]

It's where our flight resides... "Home base," I guess.

Not really. [He shakes his head] There was some guy in a cloak who said some stuff, but...I think I missed a lot of what he said.

[You know, since he really wasn't expecting that.]

Our "flight"?

[He thinks about that a moment, nodding slowly. The kid must mean that dream...or vision, whatever it was. It had been hard to remember, but even more so when you suddenly found yourself in the middle of a battleground. Jacques is thankful that this kid didn't arrive at that time like they had.]

...that's what they call them. This is the Green dragons' flight- and we're known as Greensworn.

The Greensworn...

[He scratches his head]

I've never been called that sorta thing before, but I guess it's nice to hear I'm wanted!

[Or...something.]

[Pausing from his arrow sharpening, Jacques glances at the ones at his left, then gathers them up to set in front of him. Very briefly he pats the grass that he's cleared off, as much of an invitation for Sora to join him under the tree as one can expect.]

...we're needed to help the dragons protect their world.

[he sees that invitation and is more than happy to take Jacques up on it! He plops himself down, looking over at the hunter]

Yeah? [Okay that's pretty normal for him] What's attacking this world?

[Pleased at that, Jacques resumes his work.]

....demons. They might threaten other worlds too, if we can't stop them here.

Demons that threaten other worlds...

[Wow that sounds familiar]

Are they Heartless? Or something else?

[His hand ceases to move again as he glances out of the corner of his eye at the kid, a brow arching.]

Heartless..? ...they don't seem to care about attacking anyone, anyway...

Huh? - Oh! Haha, no I don't mean they're heartless like they're jerks. Well I mean they are, but that's just what they're called!

Heartless are things that invade worlds and eat people's hearts. [Because that imagery is so much better I'm sure] So I was wondering if it's them!

...oh.

[What a strange name, not to mention disturbing, to say the least. There's only one way he can picture something eating anything's heart. The hunter's brow furrows. Heartless- what terrible things.]

They're called the Burning Legion...

The Burning Legion?

[Huh]

I don't think I've heard of them before.

Neither have I.

[But he'd seen them, all the initial dragon-summoned had been caught up in a battle between them and the flights upon arrival. That hadn't even been a full assault then, had it?

Jacques falls silent again as he works, but then he's never been a very good conversationalist.]

[And Sora doesn't mind. Riku was never the most talkative, and some of his other friends on his travels could be down right taciturn. So it doesn't really strike him as uncomfortable]

So that's two of us.

But, I guess it doesn't really matter. If they really are threatening worlds, then I don't mind helping them out.

[Sure, he had other things he needed to do. Stopping Xehanort, preventing the keyblade war, saving the people the King wrote about- but Sora was never the sort to turn a blind eye to people in need. If this world really needed help, he's sure the others would understand him taking some time to do just that]

[The hunter nods. That much, he can agree with. ...not like they have much of a choice, really, after being pulled here, but Morpheus had said that other worlds could be at risk too.]

[He sees that nod! It makes him grin]

Glad you agree!

I'm Sora! What's your name?

[Blink. Oh, right.]

...it's Jacques.

Nice to meetcha, Jacques! And thanks for answering my questions too!

Nice to meet you too, Sora.

[He nods again, and even though there's no obvious smile on his face, there's just something that hints that he's happy to have been able to help.]
