Day one in Erbar Telamarth was like Day One in every other village that wolves had ever infiltrated- it was a shot in the dark.
"Let's lynch the most suspicious villager," said someone who was not very suspicious.
"No, we should lynch a random villager," suggested a suspicious villager.
"No, that's a terrible idea!" objected several random villagers.
Cailin, who was overly optimistic and possibly a bit off her rocker, unhelpfully suggested, "We should lynch a werewolf!"
"We're probably going to end up accidentally lynching our Seer," moaned
Shelob, who was prone to pessimism.
"No, we'll probably end up double lynching the Seer and the Hunter and the Hunter will take down the Ranger with him," whined
Encaitare, who was even more pessimistic than
Shelob.
"Well- I say we lynch the quietest person!" yelled
littlemanpoet, who had been awfully talkative.
"No way. The wolves are probably all loud and they are trying to push us around," returned
Mister Underhill. "Let's lynch a loud person."
"I say we lynch the person with the smelliest job!" bellowed
the guy who be short, looking pointedly at
Formendacil.
Formendacil glared at the dwarf, and shot back "Well, I say we lynch the
shortest!"
"You're ALL a bunch of MORONS!" screamed
Boromir, insulting the entire village for the umpteenth time that day.
"I wish you'd stop
needling everyone!" chided
Esty, the seamstress.
"I think we should lynch
Esty for trying to be punny," offered
Anguirel.
"Oh, don't be so
knit-picky!" said
Esty.
Everyone groaned.
Amid the confusion of the village, someone asked, "Is there a reason not to lynch
Anguirel?"
Eager to be off to bed, the other villagers quickly decided that there was not a reason not to lynch him.
"Well, I guess this serves me right for offering myself to be lynched," muttered
Anguirel, the noble knight errant, as he was tied up.
"Will you at least give me a swift, clean death... you know... don't beat me or anything, like has happened in other villages?"
The villagers talked it over and agreed that, as the cream of the crop, they should conduct themselves in a noble manner during all lynchings.
"But if
Ang's a wolf, won't we really regret not being mean to him?" asked
Lhuna.
"
Lhuna's right!" shouted one villager.
"Let's get him!!"
Everyone grabbed a blunt item and proceeded to beat the poor, defenseless knight into pulp. Old boards, fire pokers, golden scepters, and the jawbone of a donkey all left their marks upon the knight's completely human body.
DEAD
