You know I'm in serious modu when I center the post. XD
That being said.........
Basically, Cykes got raped. Lots of people are dead. Medical facilities are pretty much filled up with the amount of injured. Other towns have sent people to help out, but half of the people in the Sidosa Board have been killed or disappeared, including Tanith Seyour and Corinkarus Courtright. Fion is now the last remaining member of the Seyour household, by the way. The majority of the students in Araki's school will be dead or under extensive care, because the merchant district, where most of them come from, suffered the most damage. Due to the fact that summoning was used, all Talze Utera-related peeps are now under heavy suspicion. The Bureau is now assembling a party to hunt down the two abnormal rift-beasts that have appeared.
News of the attack on Cykes will have spread pretty damn quickly, but for the airship peeps (Moko, Rilolia, Chad/Lyra, Yazu), they will not be aware of it at all. By the by, they should be getting their ass to Astopol now.
