Demember: verb. To remove a finger from the hand of someone. This was a form of torture used in by the Mali Empire to punish those, who attempted to drink milk. This was especially prominent during the reign of Mansa Musa II, who happened to be lactose intolerant and so banned the drinking of milk under the punishment of d
emembering. There were some, who attempted to avoid the punishment and still drink milk, but they were quickly discovered by the world's first form of Inquisition/Police.
