I feel we have to sever this Gordian knot somehow. I'd prefer lynching Legate, but if that's not going to happen

See what I mean Legate, how the 1st vote can start a bandwagon?

Sometimes it just happens that way. Having the tiebreaker be "first to receive the votes" is very effective at encouraging early votes!

Are you telling me this was some kind of a test/game from your part????

Or are you threatening Legate??

I don't know. Too late for my brain. I would really like to know what Boro is scheming, but hopefully knowing Huin's role will help.


edit: xed with everyone after Boro

Huin, I hope you're a wolf and trolling, but whether you are or not, you can rest assured I will CERTAINLY look at Boro and Legate toMorrow. If you're innocent, I'm sorry, and I hope that's a comforting thought.

Ps. How is it still only .54???

But not Pitch who actually sealed my fate? Because you're the wolves?

(Nope, not trolling.)

What, by Lynching For Information and then flailing dramatically about when the vote gets taken up? Nah, and your strings of random letters aren't Oscar-worthy innocence either.

What's this, some sort of flaunting, when it even was not a point I disagreed on?

WHAT'S GOING ON WITH THIS CROSSPOSTING??? IT'S NOT EVEN DEADLINE???

I sure hope Hui is a wolf.

Otherwise I'm gonna smash Boro and Legate's heads together toMorrow.

....I might do that anyway.

No I mean how I'm very nervous that everyone after me voted for Huey, after everyone kept saying it wasn't a "likely possibility."

So, in my opinion either Huey is a wolf and his 2 mates bussed him. Or I'm suddenly fearing that he is as he says, just an ordo, and all these Huey votes at the end (Lommy, Legate, Pitch, Lottie) that 3 of you are wolves.

I wouldn't be hugely surprised. I realized that of the four people left, none of us were going to agree on anyone else - no one else seemed to want to vote Sally, I didn't want to vote Boro, Pitch didn't want to vote Pitch...

DL. Night 3 Begins. Stop posting.

The outlaws of Dorthorion were keeping their distance toDay, far more so than the 6 feet they kept during the plague that burned through their camp last Year. Friends had turned against friends. Old rivalries had taken hold again. The outlaws could barely trust themselves and their own judgement, let alone the judgement of their neighbors. They eyed each other suspiciously, looking for cuts or injuries that could have occured during the attack the Night prior.

Then the finger pointing began.

“It’s Lottie, Sally, and Hui,” yelled Lommy.

“No, no, no, I think Lottie is innocent and Sally… ehh...it’s definitely Boro,” said Hui.

"Excuse me?" Boro asked. "No, it's definitely Hui!"

Sally could be a wolf. She talks an awful lot about “gut feelings”,” Legate added.

Legate looks suspicious to me,” Boro chimed in.

Lottie is wearing green shoes and I don’t like that,” Sally said, pointing to Lottie’s feet.

“Hey! My shoes are awesome!”

“Yeah, well Sally you’re wearing a brown coat and that looks suspicious to me!” Kath countered. “Plus Form voted for her yesterday and now he’s dead!”

“Yeah, I’m going to go with Lottie too,” Soriman said.

“Why?” Kath asked.

“Uhh...brown coat! I don’t like brown coats,” Soriman said, then promptly took off.

“Well that’s odd, but back to Sally’s gut feelings…” Legate said, steering the conversation back towards his opinions.

“All this talk of guts is making mine grumble,” Lommy muttered.

Sally and Huin are on my radar,” Morsul said.

Huin! And Boro and Legate!” rose a whole chorus of voices.

“But who is the worst of them?” Lommy bemoaned.

Huin!” Lottie cried, “His death would bring us peace - and if not peace, then knowledge!” She grabbed a javelin and raised it in a mighty strike. As she threw it forward, a strong wind arose. As it rustled the pine branches, it almost sounded as if a distant voice called Sally! The sudden gust blew the javelin ever so slightly towards sally, but could not sway the heavy weapon from its path before it sunk deep into the center of Huin's chest. He gasped and collapsed forward onto the green grass.

Huin’s very human corpse lay unmoving in the earth as the wind died down and the sunset painted the waters of Tarn Aeluin crimson.


My grief is not that you were then too brave!
My grief is that you are bereft of hope here.
