Inzil looks bad. I don't know if the wolves would really take so much pains to frame a single innocent. To state the obvious, he is either
a) a misguided innocent who honestly made a mistake at the end of yesterDay. Possible, I suppose. However, the timing of his vote is as last minute as can be, it looks calculated. The resigned attitude toDay doesn't look innocent to me, either. We need to catch a wolf, and if he is innocent he should speak out for himself so we don't make the wrong choice.
b) a wolf. If
Inzil is a wolf, it would point to
Nessa being one too, otherwise he wouldn't have bothered. It would have been a pretty extreme move for a wolf though, since in saving one wolf he would have two of them highly suspected the next Day. Is the two kills per Night advantage that important to them? Or do we have an insanely bold pack who decided to sacrifice half of them to cause havoc and let the other half slip by unnoticed? No, it wouldn't make sense unless
Inzil believed himself already seer-dreamed, but the Night's kills speak against that - neither
Valier nor
Lommy seemed like Seers who had dreamed
Inzilwolf. Or was he just otherwise certain he and
Nessa were going to be suspected the next Day anyway?
c) a cobbler. This is actually beginning to look like the most sensible option to me. A cobbler would be ready to make a drastic move to save a believed wolf from the gallows - or even, come to think of it, an innocent, thus misleading the village royally. His "kill me if you like, but you're wasting your time" -attitude looks quite cobblerish, too. If I have the time I might go through
Inzil's early posts to see if there is anything resembling a cobbler hint. His previous behaviour struck me more wolvish than cobblerish though.
Gah. Enough about
Inzil, there are sixteen other people to look at. Well, fifteen. For example, I haven't seen any talk at all about the
Lottie-wagon. What, exactly, were the arguments for lynching her?

So... what about those of my suspects, then, who are still alive. Skip, Boro, Rikae? Nessa, who escaped the gallows yesterDay, and what about again Zil, her gallant savior? And who knows about Pitchwife? Or what about all the quieter folk? Don't we have a team, after all, which is made only out of them? (Something like Greenie-Mänwe-LRH-Cailín/Nessa/BG or something... would actually make a lot of sense, especially in relation to the first Night awkward kills. Maybe if I scratch Greenie from that and make it one of the five, it would make the most sense, as there is a slight chance Greenie would not like to kill Ozban or Kath.)

I'm not fond of
Legate's tone here. The first paragraph is pessimistic, which is doubtlessly how the wolves want us to feel. The second is the classic wishy-washy
Legate, he pretty much says that everyone could be a wolf actually, without being definite about anyone. And, like
Cailín, I don't quite approve of him saying that us as wolves would account for awkward kills!
EDIT: ouch, x-ed with Legate's novel!
