"Yes, a poor move on my part... but if you recall Menel was already in a fair amount of trouble at that time, so I impore that you consider this: If it were that both Menel and I were wolves... do you consider me as thoughtless as to openly 'cue' his excuse later? Hommm!" the ent groaned in disappointment. "That would be foolishness and not the cunning of a wolf."

Sounds like you're trying to force me to think it was foolish and not cunning. I don't think it as foolish, it's often a ploy wolves use, that sometimes goes unnoticed (unless you are suggesting that my so many great grand sire was a foolish wolf?) Which, I don't think so as it was a tactic that had him survive to the very end and destroy the entire village, so it isn't really a foolish tactic at all. And your insistance that it would be foolish makes you look even more guilty in mine own eyes, lady
Valesse. Yes,
Menel had grown in suspiciouns bat at this time I don't think his lynching was necessary a known, so it could be a safe move for another fellow wolf to make.'

Hmm... This Sleepy-guy here, of him I won't say much yet, exept that he has been accusing only the big three, Nogrod, Mac and Boro... Oh, and Gil.

My own take is that I wouldn't make too much wolfishness out of this. It is only natural for a villager to step out and question where the
'loud mouths' are leading this village, especially after they have just lynched an innocent. Hopefully that will change. But I admire
Master Sleepy for coming out and questioning the
loudmouths, I expect that to happen, if he be an innocent villager concerned where we're going in all this. But that's just my input.'
