She let out a little scream, which sounded more like a squeak, when she saw th mans head practically fall off.
"What happened to your head?" she asked curiously.
Groping around in the air for a moment, Nick grabbed his head and swung it back so that it rested in the folds of his ruffled collar, "Sir Nicholas de Mimsy Porpington at your service m'dear. This," he continued pointing to his head, "Is what happens when you are hit forty-five times in the neck with a blunt axe." Shaking his head, which bobbled dargerously, he muttered, "Confounded executioner."
