"Look, do you want to kill each other? Fine, I understand! But you can do that after my problem is solved, alright? How about this?" Strax began, unleashing a barrage of piercing blades at the two women with just a few words. "I have something far more important than this feud between you two.

Diana raised one eyebrow, but Strax continued without giving her a chance to say anything.
