Ai, vai.
Well, not much of a surprise, is it. The reason for Mac's murder is obvious, he even actually stated he is the Ranger yesterDay, and the Wolves, unlike us, knew that he is not lying (unless he were a Hunter pretending to be a Ranger etc... but that wasn't even probable given the timing and situation he was in when he posted - no time to think of complicated covers - and anyway, it was a Gifted down, the Wolves would've gone after him in any case, I would say). He probably could not protect himself, so he was done for. In fact (to warm up my own soup a little bit), I thought Mac is a Gifted of the way he acted towards me, already on Day 1. Well, if he was it already back then (oh, but he must have been, right? Yes, of course). Anyway... do you notice that the "pile" of the dead (well, a good expression indeed) is getting quite thick? It's the number of kills per night. Now even the Ranger is missing, which means even more...
Now however, what can possibly someone lead to kill a child? Apart from that being really unspeakable, I think this deserves deeper investigation. I shall try to look to it, however not sure how much I can put into it, given the late hour here, I think I am probably rather going to sleep in a short while, so I will probably wait a moment if someone else posts and save the work for the morning when I am more fresh.
EDIT: x-ed with these two
