Well, I'm back sooner rather than later, but the expected vote of condemnation has come from Azaelia. As noted, it's down to Alcarillo to decide the face of the village.

I really hope that, after all this thought on my part, that Azaelia actually IS the Werewolf. 'Twould be a crying shame if it was Alcarillo...

Alcarillo · 10-12-2005, 04:21 PM

So the fate of the village falls upon my shoulders.

Azaelia of Willowbottom · 10-12-2005, 04:43 PM

To quote Calvin&Hobbes, my favorite comic strip... "Hooray, we're dead."

And so we are. The village goes down tonight with me, because I am innocent. We were this close...THIS close to defeating a wolf, and so securing glory and fame (which we all want, I know...hahaha)...and then I get lynched. This is the part where if I was a wolf, I would be fed up with it all and would disclose myself. But I'm not. I'm innocent. But I'm still fed up.

Formen has done a brilliant job in discrediting me, and for that, I congratulate him. All hail the victorious wolf.

If I didn't know better, I would insist that I was not only playing with a wolf but also with a cobbler. Which, I admit, would be awesome, in a morbidly fascinating way.

Goodbye, sweet village...and all that sentimental stuff. Good for you, wolf. You win.

Formendacil · 10-12-2005, 05:01 PM

Why do I get the feeling I've played into a Wolf's hands???

Well, votes are irretractable. Since I didn't get lynched after that Wilwa business, I suppose it's only fair that I cause the village's ruin now...

If Azaelia really ISN'T a wolf, that is...

The last three villagers stood in silence, wind whipping their hair and rattling the bare tree limbs. Two pointed to each other then looked expectantly at the third. It fell upon his shoulders to pass down judgement. In a moment's time his gaze fell upon the she. And it was understood.

The two males rounded on her and with vice-like grips dragged her to the river. Side by side they knelt, with her on her back in between them, they forced her head under the water. She kicked, she clawed but to no avail. Finally her body lay still and at that instant, one of the two changed.

Howling with delight it turned to the innocent. Their bodies clashed in mid-lunge, rolling in the mud. Pushing faces, kicking, hitting, but the strength of the wolf was too much. It seized an opportunity and clenched its fanged jaws on his throat, crushing it. With a last twitch of the legs, he was dead.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Years later, when the mainland town nearest the sea would have its own Fall Festivities celebrating the year's bounty, tradition had it that the youth would go to hear the legend of the desimation of SeekHaven Island.

The story never grew old in the yearly telling and it never lost its effect of sending chills up and down the spines of the listeners.

"That is wonderfully scary!", the children would praise the storyteller, "How do you know so much?"

"I just do", he replied as he ran his tongue across his teeth indecently.

I wish to thank everyone who participated, you all played brilliantly and made this game memorable. I also thank those who repped me and the two who rated the thread.

**The Saucepan Man** · 10-12-2005, 05:22 PM

Ai! I am going to have to give up Werewolf games.

After wilwa was lynched and found innocent, I was convinced that the Wolves were Boro and Formendacil. When arctic was lynched and found to be a Wolf, I was convinced that the remaining Wolf was Boro. When Boro died, I was convinced that it was Formendacil!!!

A grudging (

) congratulations to all the Wolves, but particular congratulations to Alcarillo. Talk about slipping under the radar ...!

You played an excellent game, sir.

And what's with the location, Formen? Morm pointed it out to me after Boro died and it looked to be an absolute giveaway.

Great game, though. Thanks to all involved. Eomer, you were an excellent adversary. I enjoyed our tussle. And you played your role excellently, Cailin - spot on with the dreams. Was it Azaelia that you dreamed of the night before you got killed? And once again, morm, humble apologies for instigating your untimely and underserved death.

And last, but most certainly not least, praise Holby with great praise! A wonderful modding job and excellent death scenes - you really know how to rack up the suspense, don't you?!!

Edit: Ah, I see that Azaelia was Cailin's third dream. Well, at least I got something right.

I can attest that the location was there before Boro's stuffing. Formen is from Canada and they had their Thanksgiving earlier this week.

Fantasic job guys. Beautiful work. And Holby gets so great praise praising for her fantastically suspenseful and fun deaths.

Hint: The second Monday of October is the Canadian Thanksgiving...

Oh, what a brutal, painful, totally addictive game...

I was totally taken in... My brilliant thesis against Azaelia: totally wrong! I'll admit to having a twinge of indecision when Alcarillo agreed with me so easily, but clearly I didn't act on it...

Oh, the pain!

Still, I think it a miracle I survived the Wilwa debacle. I was just crying to be a Werewolf there.

Future Fellow Werewolf Players: When looking at my brillant theses, remember this abysmal game.

Still, that was FUN!

Alcarillo · 10-12-2005, 06:20 PM

Great game everybody!

I'm surprised I won. My previous playing time was equal to three days across two games. Now it's quadrupled!

And imagine my delight when the two innocents had voted for each other! I almost felt like typing a you-fools-I-was-the-wolf-the-whole-time speech.

And great modding, Holby. I especially liked the epilogue.

Thanks go to my fellow werewolves. I couldn't have done it without you!

Hey I get some crazy ideas but they seem to never be correct.

My opinions seemed to mirror SpM's on who the wolf was. I kept wanting to just click reply and yell can't you see that Boromir is the wolf. I thought it was interesting that day where Boromir and Formendacil came out and gave a little bit of an arguement to each other and said they were suspicious of each other then both quickly turned on another, I believe Azealia

What I need to know is from Abercrombie...Why? I was dying that day. I've rarely been so frustrated. I just couldn't get anybody to believe me. But I do thank Holby for making Boromir eat his words....it was kind of my request at the height of frustration...no hard feelings though Boro or anybody for that matter.
