The Naga was vaguely familiar with the mercenary in passing, and then only by reputation. So when Gillian and Gerard stepped forward with more experience on the matter, Mari was happy to let them take the lead in the conversation. Tucking her axe back into her belt, she slid around Alette, making sure to stay out of the spearwoman's weapon reach as the Naga moved to inspect one of the corpses behind the diminutive merc. Meritza made a brief show of inspecting the dead body before turning to watch Alette out of the corner of her eye, having now effectively pincered the mercenary leader between herself and the others. It wasn't exactly subtle, but in this situation, subtlety was the last of the Naga's concerns.
