"It's pleasant to meet someone who looks past the surface. Most of my...companions are too intimidated by my monstrous appearance to be around me if they can avoid it, but you show nothing but interest." Xylath commented as her tentacle slid away from Kitara's scaled body and quickly began to burrow back beneath the ground, leaving only the shell, her lure body, and a few eye stalks above ground. As Kitara stepped up next to the lure, Xylath placed an arm around her shoulders in a friendly manner. "As for you, it seems you're quite a unique creature. Like me." she mused, looking out at the people assembled in the stadium with the dragon girl, little more than cattle for the Maneaters as the situation stood. "Not all of them, no. They are a food source for all of us here. It may not seem like the fairest of arrangements, but survival is the top priority right now..." she explained, hoping Kitara wouldn't be too horrified by this but also seeing that outcome as reasonable. "I don't think you'll have to worry about winding up like them, though. Not as long as you stay with me." she assured Kitara, her tendrils fingers stroking the dragon's arm softly.
