Okay...
There seems to be the only option to save myself. Although she wasn't my prime suspect, maybe there is this Rune-theory which could be... ++Lommy EDIT: x-ed since my last post... hmph...

Okay people, as it seems unlikely that Lommy would vote herself, and nobody else is seemingly around, a few last words.
This game is horrible by the performance of the silent players. Some are not even around at all (Shasta). Nog should have been around. And despite what Brinn said about RL time, I also was busy during the week, but I tried to post and I think I did - at least somewhat. This is a game... not a place of empty silence. EDIT: x-ed with Lommy.

Voting is closed. Legate is to be lynched.

The Wargs had become more vicious this day; resentment had flared up, caused by the murderers in their midst. Legate garnered more votes than any other, and it was decided that he should die. But as his would-be executioners rounded on him, a terrifying transformation occured. Legate writhed and twisted, and he grew to a great size; becoming a form mighty and magnificent, yet also dreadful; and such a look of wickedness was in his eyes as the Wargs had never before seen. This fearsome spectre stood poised, waiting for battle. The Wargs pounced upon him, and they fought a brutal exchange. The stranger was remarkably powerful, and even all the Wargs together were struggling with him, but then they heard a deep, booming laughter, and they stopped to look at where it had come from.
Brinniel had not yet joined proceedings. She stood there, her unnatural form trembling, as if about to burst. The demented gaze she sported was proof enough that she was no real Warg. She cast aside her skin, so it seemed, and grew into a figure so similar to what Legate had become. It cried out: "Manwë! Thou hast tried to cripple the Wargs, but how it has turned out -- they have helped me cripple thee!" And he flung himself at his foe, a devastating collision that rent a chasm in the middle of the ancient Wargish sanctuary. Manwë had time enough to cry "Melkor!" before their clash; afterward he shrieked, a sound so terrifying some Wargs threw themselves to the ground. And then he was gone. Melkor danced to the top of a stone pillar, looked back at the Wargs and smirked. Some gave chase, but Melkor flew off the side of the hold, down into the valley, and disappeared victorious. He had achieved his goal. The Wargs, bemused though they were, soon began to remember their old friends Legate and Brinniel, who had been murdered by the two mightiest beings in Arda mere hours ago. --------------------------------------------- The Living Thinlómien Kath Gwathagor Shastanis Althreduin Mithalwen Diamond Gollum The Great Rune Son of Bjarne Gaunt The Dead SamwiseGamgee (Guardian) Kitanna (Warg) Groin Redbeard (Warg) Nogrod (Warg) Legate of Amon Lanc (Manwë) Victorious Brinniel (Melkor) Night 4 has begun.

The Warg Elders were far too exhausted, after the bizarre happenings of the dusk, to look at the walls of Eomer. In truth, they missed nothing essential. They had done well to dispose of the master of the villains, he who had directed the slaughter of Wargs, including Legate of Amon Lanc -- the Warg whose form he had assumed. That despicable Manwë was ever cursed by Wargs after.
And Melkor too had been and gone, slaying Brinniel in the process, though aiding the Wargs in damaging Manwë so badly that he would never again be seen in Middle-earth. Their private war was not at an end, though it never again caught the Wargs so grievously. The Wargs knew now how the mighty thought of them. In the morning, the Warg Elders found that more terrible things had happened: Rune Son of Bjarne had been slain, obviously with gruesome gusto. A blade was sticking through his heart, not quite obscuring the Wargish markings neath the fur on his chest: the markings were of ancient tradition in Warg magic, and their meaning was not lost on the Elders. Rune had been a Warg skilled in seeing the truth beyond the outer layer of beings of this Middle-earth; he had been one of their specially gifted: their Seer. They later found the body of Shastanis Althreduin, who had not been seen for at least one day. He had not been murdered directly, but had indeed died of grief, at the realisation of the pain of Wargs. --------------------------------------------- The Living Thinlómien Kath Gwathagor Mithalwen Diamond Gollum The Great Gaunt The Dead SamwiseGamgee (Guardian) Kitanna (Warg) Groin Redbeard (Warg) Nogrod (Warg) Legate of Amon Lanc (Manwë) Shastanis Althreduin (Warg) Rune Son of Bjarne (Seer) Victorious Brinniel (Melkor) ----------------------------------- Day 4 has begun.

I may be particularly out of it, but I can't understand what exactly happened with Brinniel there. Did she die automatically because Legate was lynched? Does that make them some sort of "anti-lover" pair? Me not gets it.
![]() With Rune gone this village seems doomed to debilitating silence. I'm one to talk, I know, and unfortunately I won't have time to remedy that completely. But I should be able to delay my vote to a wee bit closer to the deadline. For now, it seems a closer read of Rune's posts are in order.

So, our seer dead? Not nice, not at all. But at least so is one of the baddies. (And two extra casualties on our side - not good.)
Well, at least I know what to do. First I will look through Rune's posts and see who he might have dreamt of. Then, I will reread yesterDay's narration. I'm rather puzzled as for what Legate actually was, and how was Brinniel related to that. It didn't look like Legate was an ordinary wolf. Maybe he was some kind of a werebear? (But that Brinn thing still looks weird to me.) And then lastly I will never even half-trust that Monsieur d'Amon Lanc again. ![]() edit: xed with Di

I think it's rather difficult to interpret Rune's posts. On Day2, his suspect list looked unseerish, but this was his list of people he won't vote:

Quote:
I think he dreamt of Mith on Night3. That would explain his reluctance to vote her again. Then he probably also dreamt of Kath... (which would mean I've once again been wrong about stuff ![]() So, if we think he dreamt of Mith and Kath (and Groin), that leaves me, Diamond, Gwath, Gollum and Gaunt as possible wolves. How many are there supposed to be in there? At least one. Possibly two. Or even more, who knows. Anyway, right now I'm most suspicious of Gwath. Gollum looks a little fishy (haha, Gollum and fishes ![]() Now, I'm off to reread that Legate-Brinn narration and have a quick look at Legate's posts.

Hmm. With Rune, Legate, and Brinniel gone I have the idea Lommy is the only one who will keep up a steady flow of conersation.
This situation is horrible. I can't justify accusing most of the remaining party because of the almost total lack of evidence of any kind, except simply being quiet, like Gaunt, but then so have I been a silentish sort of player. To another topic, I was first chased around by Legate, and now Lommy has chosen me for a target. Knowing now who Legate was, I am tending towards considering Lommy a traitor. Of course, I may be wrong and I am not making a decision off of so slim evidence as that, but I am watching Lommy. ![]()
