Allied with Zeus = allied with wolves, I suppose. Though Boro's explanation looks pretty honest to me.

Actually, right now I find myself more suspicious of the people who think they see hints everywhere - Wilwa, Mac, Nog - than of the people who are supposed to be doing the hinting. Eonwe's alleged hint sounds the most plausible, but in that case, it may just as well be a hint to the village (letting us know to lynch him if he's turned) as to the wolves. Nerwen's is indeed really embedded in the banter, but could still be something - but Boro's looks more like what he says it is than anything else to me.
