Vert was a bit shocked to see guards coming at them all of a sudden. She was surprised at what was happening enough so that it forced her to focus through the haze her drunken mind was inducing. She heard the merchant tell her to keep George going straight with Steve. "You got it!" Vert said running to Steve and hopping on him. As she rode forward while guiding George she latched her head into a sort of harness she had on herself. Not have a neck made her rather nauseating sure, but she had learned to live with such a thing and having to carry her head often meant she only had one hand to use freely. By having her head in a harness like the one she had it would allow her to use both hands.

As Vert was starting to get George moving she felt a sharp pain in her back. She picked up her head from the harness to look at her back, there was an arrow in it. It hadn't hit any vitals but it still hurt like hell. One of the stranger things about Vert compared to other Dullahans was that when in pain, she would start to laugh. It was unsettling even to monsters in her kingdom. As the pain started to settle Vert started to laugh, it echoed from where her head should be to the point where it started to be thrown throughout the area. Her laughter was luckily good at distracting as some of the guards were confused by the dust kicking up and now the sound on Vert's laughter. "Would of loved to a few you know. Spines like theirs must make some pretty get weapons. Could get some good money for those." Vert said through her laughter.
