Gone was the sureness of the villagers; they were to lynch Mormegil, but was he really a wolf? They’d find out soon…
As the villagers led him to the village square, they recalled their other problem: they no longer had a gallows. Some other means would need to be found to lynch Mormegil. “Burn him at the stake!” suggested someone. “Nay, chop off his head!” yelled another one. The villagers nodded in agreement with this: it was quick and required not much preparation; if Morm was a wolf, he would not have time to burst his bonds and escape. But the executioner was not to be ousted of his job. “You have shoved me to the back long enough!” he cried. “My axe has too long been idle. You have decided to lynch me, but it is I who will commit the deed with my own axe as it should have been these past Days. By this you shall know that no wolf am I, but innocent!” The villagers were utterly bewildered at this, and thought maybe to take their decision back. A wolf surely would not kill himself…! “Wait!” someone started to call, but it was too late. Morm had dropped himself to the ground and brought the blade to his throat. “In the words of Elf-Warrior… think better of me.” And with that, he heaved the axe upon his own neck. The axe, which had been hopefully sharpened so many times this fateful week, cleaved through to the bone. Morm’s eyes shortly glazed over and his body went limp. He had spoken the truth: he had been innocent. Ashamed, the villagers returned to their homes without a word to each other. Their numbers dwindled; they were running out of chances. ~*~*~*~ Living: Encai Eomer Lhuna Saurreg TORE Wilwarin Dead: Firefoot – drowned and burned by werewolves on Night 1 Nilpaurion (Ordinary Villager) – beat piñata style and killed by villagers on Day 1 Fea (Ordinary Villager) – gutted and stuffed by werewolves on Night 2 Oddwen (Ranger) – killed by Nilp’s villager-provoked wolves on Day 2 Durelin (Hunter) – Deadheaded by werewolves on Night 3 TGWBS (Ordinary Villager) - Slain by Hunter on Night 3 Kitanna (Werewolf) – Paralyzed and hung by villagers on Day 3 Dancing Spawn (Ordinary Villager) – Twisted like a pretzel and stuffed in a closet by werewolves on Night 4 Elf-Warrior (Ordinary Villager) – Stabbed through with knives by villagers on Day 4 LMP (Ordinary Villager) – Suffocated by werewolves on Night 5 Oromin (Werewolf) – Crushed under gallows by villagers on Day 5 Kath (Seer) – Scalped with eyeballs ripped out by werewolves on Night 6 Mormegil (Ordinary Villager) – Cut off his own head rather than having the villagers handle his axe on Day 6 Score: Werewolves – 1 Villagers – 5 It is now Night 7.
