Alric curses his luck to be in such a predicament. He also has mixed feelings of Torrent's entering the fray."Torrent you fool! This is tactically incorrect!" After he says it he realizes how absurd the scolding sounds. Though in actual fact, he's just sore at the thought of Torrent coming to his "rescue" and owing her for more than just bandaging him up.The heat of the battle washes over Alric again, he recovers from the befuddlement of the compulsion spell and in the blink of an eye he considers dozens of tactical maneuvers to handle this melee he's fallen into. Though he looks into the red eyed inquisitor, the one that openly challenged him and made him a fool. In that moment he puts aside all his tactical sense and gives in... to scorn."I'm going to make you pay for that you damnable abomination!"Alric raises his blade over the top of his shield, point facing behind him and twisting his torso such that his chest faces towards his shield. Then with hate writ upon his face he uncoils his back, shoulders and arms in a cross-slash aimed at the inquisitor's throat. The sword sails harmlessly over the inquisitors head, but Alric doesn't relent and he moves to pressure the inquisitor in this pitched melee (Alric 5ft steps to P20).</blockquote>
