In catching up, no I never read the last page or two of yesterday's crap as it seemed almost wholly irrelevant. I skimmed what time would allow but I was annoyed enough at the triviality of the posts that a skimming was all I had time for.
Anyway, the Boro/Phantom relationship is increasingly bothering me. I see that Lommy is of the same persuasion as I. It just seems rather odd to me that they would be so close and trusting. Both of them are being that way and any questioning they do, which has been minimal, has been token at best. I don't trust anybody ever that much and it just seems odd to me that they do. I think they could both be wolves and are having a joyous time at our expense. They continue to lay the obvious bait in front of us but we have been reluctant to take it, as they knew we would. Phantom talks of big grand schemes that he is masterminding but I don't see it, rather I see two cohorts who are working hand in hand. And now phantom seems almost giddy like he did on day 1 which is concerning. I don't feel that way, I don't think things are going so great for us that I can afford to be giddy. Yes, we still have our seer, but there is no way of knowing is he/she has bagged even a single wolf, we surely haven't.
Nerwen's 'that's predictable' statement does nothing to allay my fears. I understand the explination somewhat but the way in which her and Boro came out firing on those seems odd and I already suspected Nerwen and again this does not help.
Brinn, thank you for those quotes and analysis. I had noticed the way in which Agan stopped suspecting Lommy so if we assume the wolves went after Agan for potential seerism I think is safe to assume that Lommy is innocent. I haven't felt overly worried about Lommy but this adds some credibility to my assumption.
