Welcome, Forweg, Kant*... or under however many names you might be known... grab a seat, take a glass, let's watch how this plays out...

*it just occurred to me that it would be funny if the remaining Infectors indeed were Kant and Marx. Nobody suspects the German philosophers?

P. S. But I absolutely stand behind my previous statement: well played!!!

Absolutely brilliant, Kath! If not for a well placed (and timed!) reveal, you might have made it to victory!

Hey Kath, long time no see! Welcome to the QT. We're "definitely in trouble" and have "no chance".

PS: And if you make a bit of space in your inbox, I have a PM for you.

Welcome Kath! This is where the real fun is.

When you can, check your PMs. We're trying to whisper through the walls, but it's kind of difficult amoungst the coughing and timbers.

Where there's life there's hope. And need of scheming.

Made me remember an old PT as well. I went digging for it through pages of that thread. Enjoy.

My God, how have I missed so many Days?! I'm sorry guys.
I didn't get an email notification about new posts and I guess out of sight out of mind and I forgot to check back in.

Hi! Sorry, I now have PM space again.

I've been wondering what this place has been like. It was great still being alive but it looked like you were all having a lot of fun!

Welcome to the quarantine, Kath, and well come indeed! We had some tense hours the other day, but things have calmed down a bit.

Well, I have also a small surprise for you in two hours.

Just wait a little.


And for all those who like some suspense, read the narration rather than rushing immediately to the end of it.

Let me guess... Night-killed Seer, Brinn is a wolf?


EDIT: Oh, and Eönwë is the kill and is the real seer. Or Lottie gets killed and isn't the Innocent Child but the real seer after all, or... I don't know what. Or the IC gets a revenge kill when they die and takes Brinn with them, who turns out to be Maedhros? No, that would be backwards, wouldn't it? Anything else?

Night-killed Seer shouldn't really be a surprise. Perhaps the Child turned on the innocents and became a Superspreader.

Now that would actually make sense, as per the debate here (fast forward to page 4, from #128 down).

I suggest we should have the discussion in the “Discussion Thread”, but whatever and where-ever. Let’s try to keep it in one Thread anyway.



I do suggest the Discussion Thread I have just updated...

Tol-in-Gaurhoth CXIV – The Evil Breath of Morgoth in Dor-lómin, discussion thread
