I know I'm just a girl, but can I change lives?
While Melita had attacked the jaguar, Lilliane had circled around it. Though the further distraction of the beast because of Melita's attack certainly helped. Melita's further encouragement was certainly helpful, though not entirely necessary. Lilliane knew well enough to take any opening in the defense of an enemy she could get.
Still, this didn't help against bad handling of the weapon she was using. In a similar move to the one she had tried on Melita earlier, Lilliane tried to hit the beast's hind legs. Which did, indeed, work, causing the animal to struggle to stay on its feet. But without Melita's staff confusing the animal, it would not have worked. Lilliane frowned, though she still kept her focus on the animal. There would be time to be angry at herself later. At least it was struggling and not attacking for now.

If I am nothing, if I am trying, I think I can
