Whoops
As the village plunged into confusion, votes were cast everywhere. The villagers were completely baffled and seemed to be voting more or less at random.
And so it was that, with only two votes, Kath “won” the vote.
A gaggle of villagers gathered around Kath in the village square. Pitchforks glinted and danced in the light of spluttering torches as the rabble surrounded her, though the majority of the villagers merely looked on, unconvinced of her guilt.
“Please! Please listen!” Kath pleaded. “I’m innocent, I tell ye. I’m a simple – er… well, I don’t really have a profession, but I’m innocent, I tell ye!”
But the villagers would have none of it. Kath’s screams were quickly silenced as she disappeared under a hoard of angry villagers wielding traditional peasant-weaponry. “Die! Die wolf!” they chanted, laying upon her.
A few moments and many kicks, prods and pokes later, the villagers stepped back, expectantly waiting for the now severely beaten carcass of Kath to transform into a werewolf.
It didn’t.
“Alas! We have slain an innocent!” they wailed.
But worse was yet to come. The villagers rushed to inspect Kath’s home, and were surprised to find a cloak, a sword, a bow, quiver and arrows stashed away. For Kath was in fact the Ranger of the village, their sole protection from death in the night.
The villagers stood in shocked silence as they tried to absorb the harsh fact that they had slain their Ranger.

Some things to sort out:
I think there might have been a little confusion about voting, as people are used to voting at 6pm. Please read the Mod posts very carefully, as they do say when the DAY / NIGHT phases start and begin.
I'm sorry I was unable to post this earlier, but both Esgallhugwen and Anguirel did PM me about being busy on this first DAY. I was unable to post it earlier due to illness, exams, etc. Anyway, they won't be dying toDAY. Also, I was sure I posted that absent villagers would not be lynched on DAY 1 as they wouldn't have the chance to tell fellow villagers that they wouldn't be there, but apparently it wasn't there when I checked the rules. Sorry about this, I'm editting it in (not that it matters now). Absentees will be lynched starting from the morrow.
For now, it is NIGHT. NIGHT ends at 4:30pm GMT, which I believe is 11:30 EST and 10:30 Central Time, or earlier if all NIGHT-time activities are received by me before then.
