Aezophyl almost laughed when a man with a noticable injury charged at him with a long, cumbersome sword head-on. He smacked to deflect it whith both hands on his own sword, hopefully deflecting him into the wall, and had to move his head to the side to narrowly avoid a thrown dagger that had come spiralling towards him. Having dealt with the longsword man, he stared at the one who he suspected had thrown the dagger.

[i]You.[/i]

With that in mind, the skeletons that had appeared coming out of the inn, still blazing, half came after him even as the other half dispersed around the street, engaging guards and attempting to take out civilians. Also appearing were small flaming creatures, jumping out the windows. While not too dangerous themselves, they would spread fire as they sprinted at an almost impossible speed and be hard to kill by non-magical means.

They would unfortunately not arrive to the man yet; he was charging towards him at a quick rate and had slashed at Aezophyl's knee. It left a slight gash in the armor which, while it would normally have bounced off, left a noticable gash which bled a combination of a red mist and slightly pouring lava coming out. [i]Enchanted[/i]...

He swung upwards as the attacker flipped back. The slight retreat he took as an opportunity to back into the inn.

[i]Let him follow into my domain...[/i]

"[color=darkred]A strange world you hail from indeed, but not too different from our own. And what came of this demon queen?[/color]"

The newcomer leaned back in a recliner that had appeared at the beginning of the talks. "[color=blue]I saw her spawn fall; I knew that the queen would have come close behind in death. She was not nearly powerful enough and went against my advice.[/color]"

"[color=darkred]Well, now, you are here. And do you assume me to be a worthy leader?[/color]"

The guest made a motion of scratching at his non-existant beard. "[color=blue]By your accounts, and assets, and goals... you do seem to be of a more reasonable sort. I assume you will want me to help with your... situation?[/color]"

"[color=darkred]Ah, yes. But first... I do not even know your name.[/color]"

"[color=blue]Oh yes, forgive me. I was known as Artholath.[/color]

"[color=darkred]Well Artholath, welcome to the group. There is a matter which I would like you to assist with, and that would be helping to deal with another matter. This matter is the leadership of the town that Aezophyl has prematurely caused chaos in.[/color]"

"[color=darkred]I  want you to take advantage of the guard advancing on him and kill the leader of the town. It is not important the means with which you do it, just make it certain that it was a demon who had done it. Show off, look like a high level lord to anyone who witnesses...[/color]"

Artholath thought about it, but only for a few seconds. "[color=blue]When can I begin?[/color]"

"[color=darkred]Now would be the opportunity to strike, as chaos has struck and feeding the flame may cause what I fear will be a suicide to become a worthy sacrifice. Do be careful; there is at least one demon on their side who will no doubt be able to detect you, even though your concealing powers are much more developed than Aezophyl's.[/color]"
