All you'd have had to do was follow Sally's vote on Nogrod– with the tiebreaker rule, that would have been almost certain death for him. After that, he could have been saved only if he and I had voted for Sally *and* Menel had turned up at the last minute and followed suit. But then, if you don't realise that now, my dearest, I don't suppose you realised that then...
Thing is, my heart– it's now clear that the wolves did *something* darned odd on Day 3.
Which is actually re-stating the puzzle we've had before us ever since: theoretically, the wolves could have won on Day 3, with a co-ordinated effort– but no such effort was made. Why not? Menel's being furry would have provided a simple answer– but we now know he wasn't.

Which is something I still disagree on with

Much like things
my pearl and I have said today, this is an 'if I were a wolf, this is how I'd act' statement. Which may be true, but isn't something provable.
I think I'm beginning to see the answer to that puzzle, though,
bright shining moon. It may simply lie in the fact that the remaining wolf wasn't willing to link herself to
Legate and
Sally irreparably with a vote for
Nogrod (obvious, I know - but no one could have foreseen the fact that
Menel would forget to vote entirely.)
