To say that she were surprised would be an understatement. 3 people, three masters no less already in conversation, and, given enough incentive, they might start fighting.

Valka herself was currently sitting in the international arrival area, legs crossed, pretending to read a newspaper, easily blending in with the crowd around her. Inexplicably, her eyes were drawn to the three people and their servants having an unusually civil discussion, watched by a near-invisible familiar, soaring through the sky unsuspiciously among another flock of sparrows.

All evidence pointed to the fact that they'd already created an alliance, however unstable and unverified it may be. It would be fairly simple for her to turn them on each other, but the timing, would need to be properly managed, too early, and she might be found out, too late, and the alliance might be unshakeable.

Her hand drifted to the blade hidden under her cloak, a source of comfort, and something that helped her to concentrate, formulating the draft of a plan slowly in her head, thinking of the best way in which to unravel her opponents.

Huo had gone off to shop for food. He wandered the market in a pure black Changshan with white sleeve collars. He'd been given a large supply of money, and would know more about nutritional supplements than she would. Besides, she trusted his aim, it would be trivial for him to attack from even such a distancel. She was relatively safe by herself, anyway, there was a low level of risk for her expedition today.

The other masters had no idea who she was, nor that she was a master. It was a scouting mission, nothing more, nothing less. There would be plenty of time to fight later, she assured herself.
