Attlia had a good death.

He didn't.

Pulling out of Rome after the meeting with the Pope,he married and then died from choking to death on a nosebleed after the marriage feast.
Attlia never entered Rome or laid seige to it. His meeting with the Pope occured in Northern Italy. Afterwards he veered toward Gaul and the Battle of Chalons.

The traditional account has Attila dying from a cerebral hemorrhage. This was probably brought on from a sroke. It occured on his wedding night, presumably during the act of consumation.
