[Dazir]

♛

The fight between herself and the tangler felt more like a blur than anything. The familiar sound of snapping teeth and the feeling of torn flesh pushing her back into haunted memories, thus causing her act on instinct alone. However, there was another voice that called out distracting her from placing a final bite to the dog's throat to end it all. Dazir's paw remained firmly planted upon his head, holding him there as she hesitantly looked in the cheetah's direction. She offered promises of safety and another low growl vibrated within the child's throat. As much as she wished to believe that were the case she was not entirely convinced that this was not some sort of trap.

That is until she felt the thick rope holding her down slacken due to the cheetah's interference. With an air of caution she looked over at her now free limb, only feeling mild bruising and rope burn in its place. Reluctantly she released her hold on the dog and he went scampering closer to his fellow tanglers. "I didn't think she'd attack me! She hasn't even spoken, its like she's feral or somethin'." The dog muttered in response to Aurum's chastising, before heading off to patch himself up. The muscles of her jaw clenched in response. She was not feral, she understood what they were saying but no one bothered to teach her. Living the life of a gladiator of sorts within an arena does not warrant such luxuries.

Dazir's gaze then fell in the direction of the lion, listening as he more or less apologized on the canine's behalf. In regard to being hurt she glanced at her leg and simply shook her head no. The had child survived much worse in the past. Some mild bruising, raw skin, and bite wounds from a dog would not kill her. Considering Elsweyr was the one to free her she gingerly took a cautious step in the cheetah's direction. A shallow nod of her head meant to show some equivalent of thanks.
