There, between the shelves, stood Azrael, looking... mildly uncomfortable. Seemingly calm, yes, but the entire feeling here seemed roughly on par with peeking in on a skittish cat. Not precisely the same atmosphere as it was in the front of the shop. Well... yes he'd rather hoped to go unnoticed for a little while at least.
Certainly dressed a touch more anachronistically than what would normally be wandering in here.
"... An exile." Not entirely keen on trading names quite yet. "One not of this creation, forgive me for intruding."
