Now, the
Eonwe-Dionysus-thing bothered me. For the first thing, I think people (namely
Nog and
Lottie, but also others) were/are over-eager to pin him down as Dionysus, based on arguments that don't hold water. Like
Eonwe himself pointed out, the cursed is on the village's side until they are turned, ie. they should have no reason whatsoever to hint at the wolves in the first place, let alone as openly as
Eonwe did if you read his posts as hints.

I totally disagree with this, but I think we're slipping to general rules discussion again if I start ranting about it..

Just to be fair, though, I might not agree with Nog's logic but I don't agree with
Eonwe's, either:

In fact, maybe this whole thing is something Nogrod decided to latch onto because doing this would make him seem so un-wolvish.

I wouldn't pin
Nog down as wolvish, but rather as staying up way too late. He was behaving in an illogical way and pursuing the
Eonwe thing way too much, but I'm not convinced it points to furriness.
Eonwe's jump on him is understandable but I'm not sure about the validity of the argument. I'll rant some more on
Nogrod in posts to come, I think.
As for
Eonwe being a wolf
Boroseer hinted at - I'm not sure. Could be, of course, but he doesn't strike me as particularly suspicious. Of course
Boro could have hinted at him and just been the false Seer, or then he was the real Seer, dreamed of
Eonwe, and I'm off my rocker. Argh. I could reread
Eonwe I suppose, but then again, if I have the time to reread someone I'd prefer to try someone who escapes the genreal notice and isn't talked about all that much.
A rant about the voting yesterDay coming up!
