When the villagers assembled in the town square, they noticed that Formendacil was not among them.

As they entered his house, they noticed that all the bookshelves in his study had been knocked over. Formendacil lay dead on the floor, crushed under several tons of Numenorean history chronicles, translations of ancient Elvish texts, and other such things.

Formendacil's desk had a single sheet of parchment on it, on which he had written part of a volume titled "Tol-in-Gaurhoth: The True story of Sauron's Isle." The dull, boring descriptions of discrepencies between the Doriath documents and the traditional Numenorean version had stopped abruptly in mid-page and someone else had written:

"Unfortunately, the historian studying these events was mauled by a werewolf at the moment he was writing this. However, he was a little too stringy for the wolf's tastes."

Another Ordinary Villager had been taken by the wolf.
