That sounds reasonable but for one thing - the ranger didn't protect Lommy the night after her reveal, which means basically that s/he assumed the wolves would assume that s/he'd protect Lommy and decide not to attack her. And if they assume they can't get the Seer then who would the wolves target if not Mac the known innocent (unless he's Ferny)? It's quite logical (at least in some sense) that Mac was already protected that Night which would leave him defenceless last Night. That, in turn, leads to the question of why he was not killed toNight since the wolves (if they reason the way I do) had reason to assume he was not being protected last Night.

According to this logic, it looks very possible that Mac is Ferny. I don't know - he hasn't seemed like that to me. Then, of course, it's possible that the wolves do not reason the way I do or else that my reasoning is faulty in some way.


EDIT: x-ed with Miri and Leggy
