The Saucepan Man has been trapped in the Barrow!
White-Hand

Gosh! I’m quite excited. I rarely ever make it to the final Day, at least as an innocent.

Excited - but completely bamboozled. The way that this game has gone, any one of you could be the final Wolf, and I find myself rather clueless here at the end of all things. All three of you have played major roles in the death of one of the known Wolves. All three of you voted for The Might on Day 6 and for Isabellkya yesterDay. The voting record is little help, alas.

Well, if we went by the narrative, all four of us are Wolves! And I am not sure that I like the way that morm seems to begin each Day by insisting that the Cursed is still with us. For all we know, either The Might or Isabellyka could have been the last Wolf. Although I don’t think him a Wolf, it makes me wonder whether he has his own sinister agenda to pursue and is exhorting us to look for a Wolf who may well not exist in order to divert attenton from himself.

I also don’t like the way that he is so quick to jump to conclusions, and the same might be said of Kath too. ToDay is not a Day to rush into judgement, but one for careful consideration, not only of what has gone before, but also of what is said during the Day itself.

Quite frankly in this game to avoid mass confusion in my brain I decided to go under certain assumptions after I've debated the issue sufficiently. So I try to clarify those assumptions for the day. Personally, I wouldn't be much for continuing to play if I didn't assume a wolf was still alive. I've talked at some length why I assume the cursed is the one still alive. The only chance of the cursed being dead is it being Rikae which is a possibility but I would say it is more probable that she was a wolf from the beginning.

Agreed, and I wouldn't call what I have done, or Kath to be honest, as rushing to conclusions. I like to think that I've laid out my most likely scenario in my mind and I will continue to move forward with that in mind. Agan, is my priority today then Kath and then SpM. If time permits between family and work I will take a good look at all of you. Honestly though, I'm not sure how much time I can allot. Between SpM and Agan, there are a lot of posts...Kath's aren't that many though.
