Honestly, I would have no idea how to even use a sword, and I could not function without being able to write or draw. I agree with whoever else said it, if worst came to worst, my pen would be pretty sharp.... And you can convince kings to make treaties with a well-written letter. If you slaughter all their people, however, they will not be so quick to comply.

The pen wins. No matter what.

Think about it. Pick up a pen, write something down, and you can instantly kill a character. You don't even have to get your hands dirty, except maybe for the ink....
Whee. I don't even know what to put here.

I would depend on what 'mighty' would mean, so I'm not voting :3

You can kill a person with a pen, I feel like pointing out that that could make a sword redundant, if you really wanted to kill someone.
