As'ariiez observed the city surrounding him as he awaited council with a captain or authority figure of some sort. It was obvious today was a day that would be remembered for years to come. From what he witnessed on his way to city hall, a significant amount of lives had been taken due to the Night Lurker invasion. Damage had been dealt, but even so, the city felt somewhat calm. People moved about immediately going to work as if dealing with the creatures was part of their daily lives. People worked together repairing shops and tending to the wounded. Some people even came together, crying on one another's shoulder in mourning for the loved ones that would no longer be in their lives. It was an intriguing sight, one As'ariiez admired. 

As he did, an odd looking mage walked up to the Azure Knight, speaking to her directly and appeared to be speaking for a man who went by the name Lord Haklo, who sounded like just the person As'ariiez is trying to find. He was hoping the Azure Knight would invite him along, fortunately she did. He nodded, and followed her through the building. The pair entered the room, and to his surprise was filled with a few people he had never met before. They had all bowed to a tall man with long black hair, and piercing blue eyes. It would be safe to assume this was Lord Haklo the mage had spoke of. It surprised As'ariiez to see even the Azure Knight kneel in respect. He quickly did so himself as to not show disrespect.
