Eomer of the Rohirrim · 06-05-2005, 07:59 AM

The villagers woke up early. They were still distressed by the horrible sight they had seen yesterday morning, and by the awful deed they had perpetrated in the evening. There was a nervous chill in the morning air.

Still, they got dressed as usual and went to get food for their breakfast. Greeting each other as they walked along the street, they noticed something slightly unusual: the village was quiet. But why? What was missing? Ah yes, the sound of poetry. The village bard the guy who be short was always awake before anyone else and could always be found sitting in front of the town hall reciting some of his beautiful poetry.........

So why the silence? The nervous chill suddenly became more apparent.

The villagers rushed to the bard's house and were relieved to catch sight of their friend's normally good-natured face. He was by the window, admittedly looking rather glum. What's the matter? shouted the villagers. As far as they could see, there was no new sign of werewolf activity, and their hopes were raised. Come on, friend they said, and told him of their thoughts. But there was no answer.

Confused, the villagers decided to go and comfort him. Perhaps he had just finished a particularly sad poem. the guy who be short was very talented, after all.

They found the front door open, so they walked in. Though they soon regretted it: inside the house, they found suspended from the ceiling, the decapitated body of the guy who be short.

Evisse the Blue (Seer) - lynched by villagers on DAY 1
the guy who be short (Villager) - decapitated by werewolves on NIGHT 2

DAY 2 has begun now it is 3PM GMT (that's 10AM EST) and (9AM Central). It will end in 24 hours' time, or earlier if a majority vote is reached before then.

*Reminder: I should be able to post every result on time but I may sometimes be out by a few hours. This may look strange to some players, particularly the Americans. Still, votes should be cast within 24 hours and not after.*
