Hlint would be putting itself back together, yes. They lost a lot of people, but they're survivors and they're doing the best they can.
Hlint is still xenophobic, and recent events have only reinforced that feeling. How people react the presence of "someone" will depend greatly on which character of yours you're talking about. *winks* Most people will still get the feeling of distrust from the residents of Hlint, but a select few will receive a somewhat warmer vibe.
