Me too.

While we're picking our favourite deaths, I'd like to go over the edge of the world in the mysterious white mists of the Antarctic, please. Tekeli-li!

Well, Roa herself admitted (without being pressed by anyone) you could have simply been confused, as others were.

That could have been a baddie throwing out random suspicion, but it seems odd to me she would have backed off of it so quickly on her own if that was the case.

It’s not much on its own but, combined with her quickness to jump on my misunderstanding and her expressed suspicion of Nerwen, seemingly based only on Nerwen’s early accusations (which were clearly flippant, in my view), it makes me rather uneasy about her, moreso than anyone else at present.
I think that's something of a reach. At this point, I have no certainty at all of Roa's innocence, but I don't really receive any evil vibes from her yet.

So, a were-rangutan, then? Interesting...

I just have to say, this day is terrible for me timing-wise. (What is it with me and Day1s? We just don't get along.)

So far Nogrod seems to be making a lot of sense, as always. Fea did a good job talking over the probabilities involved, and I won't even talk about about the FWI.
