Nice try, mate. The thing is, why would I? Why hand the Day over to someone I know is lying?

I am not the cobbler. Gal is. And if you haven't realized what that makes me, please don't say it aloud.

That said -

++ Shasta

Good night, and good luck.

Nogrod · 12-12-2011, 05:34 PM

Love you Greenie! I mean you more or less removed my last suspicion.

++ Nerwen

It's then up to the boldest watcher for the last possible second to send in a qualified vote. An interesting way to decide a werewolf-game...

Maybe we could call this a draw?

Shastanis Althreduin · 12-12-2011, 05:43 PM

Well, Lottie, if you aren't evil, be a dear and vote Nerwen for us?

Of course, Shasta dear. And hey, don't worry, I'll be around come DL to vote, so you don't have to bother. Go ahead and vote now.

And what if you don't vote Nerwen on DL? Shasta is the only person in this game (except for myself, but I already voted) whom I can trust 100%. No, forget that. 200%.

Oh, come on, now, what's the fun without a little risk?

Thanks, Lottie. Until just now, I really wasn't for certain who the wolf was between you and Nog. Much appreciated.

How can I be sure you're not pretender?

Shastanis Althreduin · 12-12-2011, 06:58 PM

Here and waiting. You wolves won't win this one.

I owe Gwaihir thirty pounds of birdseed if you do. I can't afford that!

Shastanis Althreduin · 12-12-2011, 07:00 PM

For Gwaihir! And the other residents of Lake-Town!

"Good work on last night's protection. I've got a new name for you tonight." said the Town's miscreant.

The eagle lord shook its head. "My debt has been repaid."

Shasta stood agape, not believing what he had heard from the eagle. "You came here to serve me, to guard whomever I asked you to guard. I command you fulfill your promises!"

"The eagles do not serve men, we serve a higher being, scarcely known to men. You saved one of my kin, I did as you bid and saved one of yours. Not two, just one. The debt has been repaid."

The miscreant was growing more furious with the eagle. How could Gwaihir, the great Windlord just abandon the village now? When the townspeople were in their greatest need too? "I fear the pack will come for me tonight. Guard me. Not for a favor, but for a friend."

"You know I can not. Even if I could, I would not be able to fight off another wolf attack. I fear one bit me good in the attack last night, and the wounds need a healer's touch. The debt..."

"I know, I know." interrupted Shasta. "Its been repaid. Well if it's going that you must do, than go already. Go, go, go...see if your race gets help from me again."

"Simple minded human." brawked Gwaihir. "Does not understand the powers that turns the world. The eagles do not meddle in the affairs of Men and Elves. Though we do not let eagle-friends, sit and wait, only to die."

---

The two wolves were on the prowl again. Angry, hungry, and even angier because of their misfortunes in the past 24 hours. They would eat that miscreant tonight though. See if that stupid pet bird stopped them from feasting two straight nights.

As they entered the home of Shasta, gleefully they felt no presense of the eagle at all. "This will be easy tonight." gleamed one of the wolves. But as they tore the house apart, Shasta was nowhere to be found.

"Where could he be?" whimpered a wolf.

"Gone by the looks of it." growled the other. "He didn't even leave us a rotten apple!"

Conflicted with happiness of never having to deal with the dumb bird, or the miscreant again, yet being hungrier than ever as the miscreant seemed to have grown wings of his own, or flown off with that eagle.

"Well, where did we leave the Shepherd's sheep?" asked a wolf.

"By the shepherd...I think." smiled the other.

Kitanna · 12-13-2011, 07:02 PM

Seeing as everyone knows everyone else's roles and somehow I think no one is going to submit, everyone should be prepared for an internet staring contest.

satansaloser2005 · 12-13-2011, 07:04 PM

Just to make things interesting, I decided to hunt Galadriel....

satansaloser2005 · 12-13-2011, 07:46 PM

So, Kit, why didn't you just let Nerwen get thrown under the bus yesterDay? Why the escapades? Until your antics, I wasn't sure who the other baddie was, and might have actually trusted you. What prompted the fake reveal?

You know, I was also thinking that the wolves would sacrifice Nerwen to keep their identity a mystery. But they made a bet for it - and a close one too! The last minute votes came it moments one after the other! It took me just one refresh to have them all shown.

So, which wolf to lynch toDay? They're both known.

I was bored and until Nerwen did it too I thought it might sway the last ordo.
