[Anguirel]

Guy, you've twice addressed the Trinity of Innocents as girls. One, Taliesin, is male.

Rune's defence of himself is quite the most extraordinary oratory I've seen for some time. Why did he say what he said if he "knew" someone would find fault in it? Why should criticism from Gurthang be unexpected?

Why is he determined to stick to a restrictive theory (either morm or me being guilty) when its main source morm made a peace offering? I could understand if he produced further evidence, but he does nothing of the kind. Just bizarre, and deeply muddled thinking-especially as I remember him stating a suspicion that morm and I were wolves together earlier.

I believe that one of the candidates on the brink last evening was a wolf. This surreal performance of Rune's has edged him above Durelin in my book.

I am in haste and shall no longer delay a vote. Rune receives it not because he suspects me, but because of the manner in which he suspects me.
