This is not going well at all: my main suspects (if they can really be called that as no one in this village seems very suspicious) are
Eomer(and his other half) and
Sauce. Sounds all too familiar...
Cailomer seems to accuse
Brinn a bit too swiftly. That's the concrete thing in them that makes me suspicious. As to other suspicious things... it's something in their air... oh, drat it, it must be that avvie... ...
Sauce then. He's a bit too agreeable for himself (
) and his suspicions of
Kath even though she hadn't posted a single post when he phrased his doubts seemed quite weird. Granted, it looks like banter and probably is that, but it certainly doesn't make me trust
SPM...

Sorry for being a bit vague, but it was more the overall phrasing than any certain word that made me think that way. But I guess I might be able to find some passages that suggest that...
Well the "several" SPM mentioned refers (in my opinion) more than two people, but of course we can't discount the gifteds of being included in that several.

This just sounds like the boy was speaking of more than two people. Maybe it's just me, but I see "some" rather referring to three or four (I'm not suggesting we have four wolves, though
) people than to two.
Well of course I might be wrong here and I don't know which other word than "some" one could use when speaking about two people in a context like this, but... *sigh* I guess you can interpret these things in any/ either way so it actually seems quite useless to speculate about it. Maybe the nightly narration will reveal something. But as I said, it's wiser to over-estimate than under-estimate their numbers, so let's think (or I will think that way, anyway) that there's three of them as long as we don't have any evidence that contradicts that presumption.
