Petty and savage indeed, yet Diana wouldn't have put it past some of them to be just mad enough to think that they could take on the power that's just been presented to them. Even Diana is in awe, though it is a brief thing, and by the time the men leave and they're left on their own, she looks as calm and composed as ever.
The people around her roar victoriously at Thor's words, and Diana herself smiles, a mix of accomplishment that isn't truly her own, and relief at seeing this battle reach an end. She steps forward, sheathing her sword, her shield kept tight to her side, almost like it's a part of her arm.
"Only because of you," she says, not a shred of ill will that he interfered. She's glad for it, even, for the blood that they did not need to spill. "And for that, you have my thanks. I am Diana of Themyscira."
She watches him quietly then, curious to see if he recognizes the name.
