As the day wound down, it was time to cast their votes yet again.

Celuien: There is so few of us left… what if we get the wrong person, again?

Nogrod: Fear not, for I am convinced that Findeasea is an orc!

Findeasea: No I’m not

SleepyRanger: That is EXACTLY what an orc would say!

Grendelien: Keep in mind that it’s also what an innocent would say

Azaelia: Wait!! I think Naria is a wereorc!

Caran: What do you know? I think Roa is a wolf!

Nogrod: Orc

Caran Orc, yes.

In the end, it was decided that Findeasea would be lynched by a small margin. No, it’s not a grammatical error, by a small margin it was decided that Findeasea would be lynched using a terrible torturing device. The small margin.

How this machine worked is so terrible and gruesome that no exact records are kept, but this is what modern paleoelfropologists have been able to determine.

The soon to be lynched individual was put into a box. Not just any box, as this box had tiny little slits through which only something as thin as a sheet of paper would be able to pass through. And that is exactly how it worked. The poor victim was kept there as the villagers angrily ran just about any paper they could find through the slits, causing an unfathomable amount of papercuts. This proved fatal after only a few hours, yet by that time about half of the margins of all the papers would be coated in blood. Hence, the “small margin” name.

In any case, Findeasea was put into the small margin and the villagers took to their task. After many a books had been spent, the trashing and screaming stopped from within the box. Caranlondien opened it and her face went pale. “Findeasea” was just an innocent, like any other of us”. She said.

The villagers found the way to their respective homes and locked themselves in for the night.

There are still 2 wereorcs, a Ranger and a Shaman living.
Now living:
Caranlondien: aspiring harpist
Nogrod: unemployed barber.
Grendelien: village whittler
Celuien:lampwright
Zali: stringer-of-bows
Naria:The grower of magnificent flowers
Sleepy A barrel of apples
Roa_Aoife aspiring ballad writer

Now dead:
FaraelMod: He dyed… erm I mean died.
GlirdanRepentant werewolf : Choked on an apple. No wonder why werewolves are carnivores.
JennyHalluWereorc: Escaped the village, but could not escape the laws of physics.
Dancing Spawn...: Just a merchant: Trapped on a deathly spider’s web.
Kitanna:The town's gate-keeper: Had a lobotomy performed by an angry woodpecker.
Legolas in spandex: Legolass (A movie-Legolas impersonator): Overwhelmed and or frightened into leaving the village after seeing what had happened to Kitanna
Diamond: Simply a normal, very bad stone cutter - scared to death by orcs
Findëasëa: paleo-elf-tropologist: Lynched by a small margin.
