Whatever the Dretch wanted them for, it was absolutely no good at all for anybody involved. The Mercenaries were likely to undergo intense pain and agony before death - demons are not a gentle species, to say the least - and whatever they were needed for couldn't possibly be something that Arty himself would want to allow them to complete. Therefore, it was a very simple equation that he needed to solve. The Mercenaries needed his help; the Dretch needed the Mercenaries alive; The Dretch therefore needed to die and the mercenaries had to be rescued from being captured. It was that simple, and he was not going to wait for a better plan to present itself. Sometimes the best plan you could have was simply to roll your sleeves up, wade in and start hacking until the badguys had stopped twitching. It wasn't exactly glamorous or gloried, but it was necessary, and if there was one thing he knew how to do...it was the distasteful necessities.<br/><br/>He didn't wait for the rest of them to act before he did; he kicked Patches into a charge, an unnecessary<strong>"Hiyah!"</strong>on his lips. Patches didn't need the motivation; the slightest touch or command would get it to obey, tied to Arty's own will as it was, and it didn't need the verbal cues that living horses did. Still, old habits died hard, and it made him feel a little better about riding a corpse. Not that it was distasteful to him at all; it just made it feel a bit more normal, and he found that the more casually he treated his zombies, the more likely passersby were to act like they weren't seeing anything abnormal, even if they secretly recoiled in disgust. Nobody wanted to be the first one to make a fuss, after all. He kicked Patches into a charge, hefting his blade above his head and bringing it down in a wide, sweeping arc as he made contact with the nearest Dretch, Patches taking a bite out of its flesh, too. The easiest solution was sometimes the simplest; just keep swinging until either you or they stopped. It was good enough for the Drow. It was good enough for the Dretch.<br/><br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">Mechanics</div><div class="spoiler_body"><br/>Arty is riding Patches (who has a 60ft Movement Speed, being a Fast Zombie).
