This is very similar to how I felt after revealing myself. I felt relieved that I didn't have to watch my words anymore; the villagers wouldn't lynch me anymore because I'm a proven innocent, and the wolves wouldn't "randomly" kill me thinking I'm the Seer.

It was actually a weird feeling, since I almost think it would be the other way around. I thought it'd be sort of a 'whew! I'm not going to die toDay'(extreme relief) versus a 'finally they believe me'(mundane feeling). But, for some unexplained reason, it was reversed. Anybody else had that feeling?

Well, in my case, I've been resigned to the fact that I'll be dying any Night soon. I was actually getting impatient at first that the wolves haven't yet killed me (I've been telling Formendacil every Night how certain I was that I'll be dead that Night ), but as the Days went on I felt the need to stay alive so strongly that I was furious when I realized that I'll be dying next.

Hmm...Formendacil, I don't recall if you already told us, but can you still remember who was guarded every Night? Of course I realize I should have asked this earlier.

Regretably, no...

All I can recall is that Alcarillo guarded you the two nights ere he died...

I was GOING to keep more notes on that sort of stuff, but such noble intentions fall by the wayside once the work of it sets in...
