Editing Arket (section)

==== Top Dollar Mercenaries ====
Tatakai’s soldiers are hired as mercenaries across the Rings. They are a cracked fighting force that decimates no matter the situation. Tatakai soldiers are trained from birth and are easily worth five of the average soldier on the battlefield.

Because of this, Tatakai is able to charge premium prices for their mercenaries. It is because of this that mercenary work is the foundation of the Tatakai economy. However, all Tatakai mercenaries realize their work is just a means to an end. Those around the Ring do not understand the refusal to die that many Tatakai soldiers hold. They do not understand that every soldier knows they must return home to Tatakai so they can free Arket from [[Ark]]’s rule. That is how Tatakai soldiers routinely win despite overwhelming odds. In their minds, there is no other choice. And therefore, the death of even one Tatakai soldier is considered a great tragedy.
