[Revali didn't have a moment to admire Sidon's technique, but he took a moment anyway, because you could do things like that when you were as good as he was. Sidon was like a storm, the way he leapt was like the flash of lightning, and the way he drove in his trident was the echoing thunder. And then he took down a second one. (As there were only so many storm-based comparisons to be had things sort of fell apart at this point when it came to metaphors.)
If he had an opportunity to banter, he would. But he didn't, as him admiring Sidon's technique and how surely all surrounding Zora were thoroughly inspired by it had given the third a bit of a head start when it came to getting away.
Now.
In a different time, he'd do something flamboyant. He'd whip up some winds, dramatically pose a bit. But he had a Zora to quietly yell at once no one else was around to pay attention to them, so he got grimly to business. He did the following:
First, a bomb arrow to the leg, carefully aimed, designed to make the Hinox trip. (It did.) When the Hinox looked at him, offended, an arrow to the face. Actually, multiple arrows, enough to make it stumble, swat, fall, be totally unprepared for the additional bomb arrow, and then the talon that Revali drove in for a vicious and personal coup de grace because ultimately, he was kind of offended still about the rock thing and arrows weren't cutting it and he had to get up close and personal for the final blow.
He immediately had regrets. Mainly that there was a part of him that felt like he needed to wash off his foot. Was he a hunter, yes, had he done it before, yes, was this a big deal, normally not, but now it felt like the offense was stuck on his foot.
