((Sokay! Sorry for not posting the last couple days. Busybusybusy, and then I got depressed.))
He finishes swallowing a mouthful to pay attention to the girl for a moment, blinking at her lengthy dialogue and then smiling. How cute. "My name is Khalid." [kah-LEED] "I am a General of Risen's new defense corps. Although, that's a bit of a misnomer.." he takes another bite of the stew, slurping in the broth and sighing, pleased with the fiery spice. "Mmm..because we're not only defenders...back when Risen was Fallen, I was one of the overlord's personal gophers. I'm sure you've met or not-met, as many people have, Azura."

"Yes, I believe I have seen her before, when I was originally looking for the overlord. Azura's the little girl, right? I can't quite remember." She finished eating and just sat quietly next to Khalid as he slurped the rest of his stew. "And what do you mean when Risen was Fallen? Maybe I was in a haze a while back, but I don't remember this place ever being called Fallen."

He rolls his eyes, "Were ya born yesterday? We're called Risen because we came from underground. Apparently 'up' in The Netherworld means breaking through into another dimension. I heard some other city used to be here. Some empire that faded out of existence not too long ago."

"Ooh, that sounds interesting! I must've been living in a bubble or under a rock or something." she giggles softly to herself. "But seriously, everyone I've met here has some kind of job. You're a General in the guard, there are guards at the doors of this place, and even that little... I mean, Azura, has a job. Can I have a job too?"

He shrugs. "I don't know. Can you cook?"

Aria stares at the man. "Are you serious?! I don't want to cook. I want to do something important like be a spy or something. I can fly. Isn't that worth something in considering what I do around here?"

"Look, everything any demon does comes with a price. If you want to fly and gather intel, go do it, and tell The Overlord to pay you if she wants to see it. Wish I had that degree of freedom. She's got me under oath to be loyal until one of us dies...I'm working on the problem." He stands up, and gets another bowl of soup, sitting back down again. "This is really quite tasty. Want some?"

Aria looks at the man curiously. He did look relatively honest, and the soup looked really good. She smelled the soup, giving it another look. "Yes please, I'll take some soup. Thank you." She sat down next to Khalid and began eating the soup, which was delicious.

He takes a pipe from one of the pouches on his belt, turns around in his seat so he can lean back, and lights the pleasant-smelling substance within. The smoke's aroma is mesmerising. "Aaahh..."

"Khalid?" Aria asked, without waiting for a reply. "That aroma is heavenly." She ate some more soup before talking again. "Would you mind sharing some of that with me?" She was finished with the soup but was so comfortable in her chair that she just slid her bowl across the table, hoping that someone would come clean up after her.

He smiles, "Of course...hold onto your a**." he passes her the pipe, and then looks down at his hand for a moment. The gauntlet that should be on his left hand is missing, and in its place is a glowing sigil on his palm. He frowns. "Can't a demon get a little R&R? I'll see you later, toots..." he simply stands again and strides off, leaving her with the pipe.

Fenny stands atop the main spire still, staring out at the light when Mortimer comes to her.
"Overlord." He salutes; a fist to his chest and dropping to his knee.
"Rise. I have ascertained the nature of the unnatural storm on our horizon."
"What storm?" He blinks, standing and looking out with her. "Aahh...I had thought it was merely the Green Flash."
"It is...but it is a great many souls coming to our world...more than have ever crossed over at once. I fear the humans face a fate worse than death."
"Then let them. When there is no room left in hell.."
"Followed by us. You know what these things do when they have consumed all that they can. Fortunately, we will have plenty of time to prepare."
"How much time?" He grins, liking the sound of this already."
Fenris chuckles, "Decades, Mortimer...decades."
