Thoughts on Nogrod.
It's reasonable that Nogrod is going to defend himself against my king's little theory about him being the BW. Odd, though, that the part of #133 he attacks is not the confusing bit where Shasta seems to be arguing that "Seer" Nog saying Agan was a cobbler would somehow point to her as a wolf, but rather this:

What do you think? "Why bother checking that guy out who impersonates me..." Really? So whoever the BW is s/he would do really bad trying to look like a seer as there is a real one to check that out - and to feel very uncomfortable with it.
That's just plain weird, coming from a veteran like Nogrod, who knows perfectly well that there's a long history of other roles impersonating the Seer. He's arguing for the improbability of something that happens all the time. (Yes, I know Shasta has already drawn attention to this, but really, I think it needs more.)

EDIT:X'd with Elf-warrior.
