Okay, nobody else wants to talk so I'll start.

First off, praise to our Ranger. Good anticipation of whoever it was the wolves were trying to kill.

Now, I’m beginning to wonder if it wasn’t so smart of me to ask the seer to dream of Sleepy Ranger last night. He/she probably was going to anyway, & now the seer can’t safely leave a hint because the wolves will be all over it. Oh well, I’ll keep an eye open for that, but now that Bergil has been proven a wolf I have a new top suspect.

After looking at everything Bergil said I am extremely suspicious of malkatoj. When Bergil said this:

Quote:
well, the cobbler has died, how do we respond to that? i beleive that no wolves would have voted for him
I suspected that if Bergil should prove to be a wolf (& he has) he was covering for one of his comrades. That would leave Hiriel or malkatoj, the only two that voted for WaynetheCobbler. I think Hiriel is innocent for several reasons:

1. She said yesterDAY that Bergil had “rocketed to the top of her suspicions list” when we were all still mostly sidetracked on the SR issue. No wolf would do such a thing, not even as a bluff – it would be an unnecessary risk, one not worth taking.

2. Not only did she voice suspicion of Bergil (malk voiced some token suspicion also, but ‘concluded’ that SR was more suspicious in the end), she backed it up by voting for him – something that malk did not do.

That would leave malkatoj as the second wolf of the trio. I have been accused of being too confident several times since these wolves appeared & denied it but on this matter I am very confident. The evidence is there; if malkatoj is not a wolf than I am a wooden badger.

edit: Thoughts on who was saved- I'd say either the wolves have found the seer & tried to do away with him/her & were foiled by the Ranger or, failing to discover the seer, the wolves tried to kill either Fea or I, hoping to at least eliminate those who know who the seer is. On second thought, if they couldn't find the Seer they probably tried to kill me because Fea doesn't seem to be as sure about the hints, etc. as I am....
