Werewolf CXI - The Black Breath Ward

[Legate of Amon Lanc]

Okay, there aren't really "clear" votes as far as I can see apart from Zil's.

Inzil => ++Lalaith, or maybe ++Shasta

But:
Lottie was originally for ++Lommy, but now would prefer ++Lalaith (right?) So it would effectively be for Lalaith from you at the moment?

I am not sure if I would like to lynch Lalaith, it is an option I would not oppose, but I might prefer Zil or even Boro (yeah, now that he is nicely here, we can happily lynch him, right... )

EDIT: x-ed since my last (i.e., Lalaith)

Whatever else may be said, Inzil's right about one thing...not enough video links this game.

EDIT: That first cat may have been reading this game...

The Day has ended. It occurs to me I haven't been clearly numbering the Days and Nights, so I'll fix that once I'm not on mobile.


Lottie is the rep. Kindly send me your report at your convenience.

Sweet dreams, everyone.

Dun tossed and turned in his bed. The nightmares had gotten worse over the last couple of nights; it was nearly impossible for him to sleep without seeing Nerwen or Phantom.

A loud thud echoed through Dun's room as he fell from his bed. He groggily rolled over, his bedding joining him on the floor and covering his body. A moment later, he was wrenched from the floor by sharp-nailed fingers. He screamed, but the blankets muffled his voice.

"Help me!" he shouted again. "What's happening?"

The pressure on his legs tightened, claws digging into his calves as another hand clamped over his mouth. He was being carried somewhere, clearly, but where, and by whom?

"Mmmph mmmm didn't mmph!"

"Silence!" a gravelly voice demanded, and when Dun struggled again, the fingers on his face thrust into his cheeks, blood spilling down his face.

He tried to ask what they wanted, but before he could do anything else about his predicament, he was slammed to the floor.

The floor of his bedroom was cold. Dun shivered, attempting to recover his bearings. He was covered in sweat, but definitely uninjured.

"It was just a dream," he reminded himself. "I'm going to be just-"

A hand closed over his mouth, and the room was silent once more.

It is now Day 4.

You guys left me with a very close vote - 4/3, arguably 3.5/3 in favor of Zil - which left me with a difficult decision! I argued with myself for a long time last Night, but ultimately decided that the will of the majority should rule even in the event of a close tie. And if I'm reading the narration right, I think Zil having nightmares about tp and Nerwen means he was, in fact, evil? So yay for staying calm and not flying off the handle.

Also, I woke up this morning with a dreadful headache and this weird, oozy rash...wonder what that's about...

(It's the Black Breath, in case I wasn't clear enough. I am not long for this world, my friends, not long indeed...)

Also, I'm assuming the Herbalist saved Kuru, probably to even out the odds in case we end up with the Day Six winning condition. Thanks, Herbalist.

I also wonder if my being targeted last Night suggests that there is at least one wolf in the people pushing for suspicion against Legate. The wolves couldn't have chosen one of the unknown innocents, since that would just make it obvious who the wolves are, but they could have chosen Legate without tipping their hand - unless they're still hoping to swing the tide and orchestrate suspicion against him. I do think the people who pushed for that yesterDay (Shasta and Lalaith, primarily) deserve a closer look.

I also think the way Shasta tried to defend Zil and then suddenly put him in his top three for lynching looks very suspicious. Now that the narration seems to suggest that Zil was a wolf, I would argue that Shasta looks likely to be his packmate.

First off, yay, I'm still alive!

I hope so, and it was possible, but I don't read the narration as necessarily implying that.

However, that is neither here nor there.

Alas.

I wholeheartedly agree.

Funny, because I read it completely in the opposite way. "It looks as if he was good, being haunted in the same way they were." Although I see now that it would make equal, if not more sense if that was that those he had contributed to killing haunted him. But I assume it's meant to be ambiguous anyway. So I am not sure.

Speaking of that, would that mean the option of "waiting it out" might be feasible again? Of course there is the ambiguity whether Zil was good or evil (if evil, then it should be fairly good in our favor, though). Can somebody do the maths? Are we once again in the "if one kill can be prevented..." situation? Because then it might be better to avoid the lynching. It would be close though, I bet.

I would not be too hasty about that. First, let's keep in mind that we really don't know whether Zil was a Wolf or not. Second, I don't actually think Shasta put Zil among his top three in any striking manner.

In fact, I was sorta surprised Zil got lynched in the end, because it started to look like he wasn't a very popular target. Obviously, Lalaith's vote for him was self-preservation. But that Shasta was indeed a "0.5", because he simply did not want to lynch Lalaith more.

Anyway, I have generally fairly good feeling about Shasta, myself. Whether I agree with his opinions or not, he seems to be thinking things through and it feels like it is genuine.
