Nilia was about to go to town on the soldier who appeared to have hurriedly tossed away her bow in favor of the protection from her shield, when Brelia touched her wounded tail with that gentle, healing hand, causing her to pause and look back. This provided the defeated gladiator just enough time to plead her surrender before the naga made another swing. Looking down at the girl devoid of a will to fight any longer, Nilia furrowed her brow in displeasure, before just slithering away with a sigh. There was no honor or fun in killing non-combatants, after all. That being said, once a meal was downed, especially if they were out for good, you kinda owed it to the ones that lost their lives to put their bodies to some use, and so the naga slithered casually to the two enemies she had killed a few seconds prior. Just as she started to move, and Brelia skipped close to the tribunes, Nilia would throw in a quiet, "Thank you, for the healing", before carrying on. She had half a mind to offer up one of her 'catches' in thanks for closing up the wounds in her tail, but as it seemed the catgirl had her eyes on a more lively snack, and seeing as her spoils of war weren't exactly in a stellar condition, the serpent woman kept it to herself and continued on.<br/><br/>Hearing the centauress' comment about their naga 'general', Nilia had to strain herself not to shout out and dispute that title. If anything, she had been a part of the vanguard, not the general! But, knowing how futile it would be to argue across the arena, with the crowd doing their own hollering, the snake woman just did her best to ignore it, and concentrated on her post-battle meals. Wrenching the armor off the now rather headless woman who had got in a quick, cheeky jab on her, Nilia simply coiled up her limp body, tossed it into the air, and caught it in her jaws in one smooth motion, her maw, cheeks, gullet, chest and human stomach swelling out for just a second or two, before the meal was fully deposited into her tailgut! From there on, the naga turned to the other slain guard, preparing to consume him a bit slower, with him being in a much better condition.<br/><br/>(( A total of 20 on the performance roll from the not very graceful noodle!m<a class="postlink" href="https://orokos.com/roll/635897">https://orokos.com/roll/635897</a>m))
