Behel recoiled back, more out of surprise that she could move like that than anything else, and then cursed himself for not expecting it. Of course she could move like that; he only had to look to the skies to see the swiftness of the creatures of air. Of course, he didn't look the skies very often, preferring a much more aquatic climate.

Well, he'd just have to factor in that she wasn't bound to the earth like most others. One always had time for reassessment, at least in battle.

"What the humans have is their own doing and I have neither sympathy nor pity for those who would make such egregious mistakes," he said bluntly. Of course, he never had either for anyone in the first place, but no one needed to know that.

"But they have wondrous injections that stave off disease and machines powered off nothing but crystals and the means to produce food in the harshest of conditions, so, Madame Quiet -is that really your name?- I do hope you'd forgive a lowly alien for being a bit envious. And yes, if you don't mind."

Though they had scarcely begun to exchange blows in earnest yet, he lunged with just a hint of a hiss, staying low and every bit as quick as the predator he so resembled. His blade flashed bright as he lashed out and though he knew she'd likely parry it before it met flesh, he did so like a flashy display every now and then.
