Coercion Plus Two  

Maleagant drove Tenebrea's tip down on Alecto's right leg, making the fury scream profanities at him that Leo had never heard before. He imagined they were what the ancient Greeks said to each other during drunken festivals. 

"I don't enjoy torturing you either, my dear Alecto," Maleagant said in an apologetic tone. "But if you insist on your silence, I'm afraid I will have to keep doing this…"

He twisted the blade around, causing Alecto to scream even more. 

"However, I hope you don't blame me for this," He said while maintaining this apologetic tone that probably no one around him could believe in. "I am but the tool of the summoner. If I had my way, we'd dispense with the maiming and go straight to love-making."

"Leo," Morgana rolled her eyes at Maleagant, "don't you have an off switch for his voice?" 

Leo just finished swiping the rune on the ground with his foot, effectively breaking the circle that held Morgana captive.
