Attack the nerd with your sword

Drawing your sword you bring it down for a mighty blow. The blade smashes into his right collarbone, snapping it like a twig. The edge continues down a few more inches, destroying tendons and muscles in the process.

"AAAAAA! ARRRRR! MARGARET!" he screams inscrutably. You draw back your sword for another blow but he screams "Parole! Please, for your father's sake, grant me parole!"

Your blade hesitates for a moment, considering his request.
