The wind wails, the wolf howls = Black Wind is a wolf?

I’m not a wolf but if I killed based on that interpretation I’d be completely ok with that because that’s badass.

[Morsul the Dark]

My only counter of it is “the wind wails” is separate from “the wolf howls” but still I’m ok losing based on that interpretation

[Morsul the Dark]

I’m about to go back from lunch break you all have fun.

Just to reiterate
Lommy is the wolf
I’m not

Sorimon vote however makes sense to you

Pitch’s interpretation of the Fhost’s post is incorrect but cool so I’m ok getting killed for it but it’ll lose the village the game.

Edit: meta note thanks for keeping my mind off how much I hate selling credit cards lol.

I'm also off for (late, I know) dinner. At the moment, I have very little to add to what I've said before.

I'm happy to answer any questions that arise.

If you vote while I'm gone please please think it through.

I don't know about Pitch's ghost interpretation. Like, I get "the wind wails, the wolf howls" could be about Morsul ("dark wind") being a wolf, but otherwise not sure it adds up.

I still think Lottie saying "Go not to the Elves for counsel, for they will say both yes and no" and "Advice is a dangerous gift, even from the wise to the wise" mean that she/ the dead don't have an opinion she's comfortable stating. (Which btw I still think is not very helpful, because it's literally a matter of life and death toDay.)

I guess it’s a choice feast; at least a tasty morsel it’d make us, gollum!

So the ghost doesn't know for certain but believes Morsul is innocent?(assuming they cross posted with Lommy)
