11 people left, 4 of which are wolves. If we don't lynch a wolf toDay, it's 4 wolves and 4 innocents toMorrow, and we will have lost. Unless the ranger is lucky, of course.

Let's look at what the seer left us (typing while I read).

Day1: Makes positive remarks about me, Kitanna, Agan, and Legate, me twice. He definitely didn't find a wolf Night1, unless he completely keeps quiet about it.

Day2: He's after Legate a little. In his #252 list there's a host of people he feels good about, but only two he feels "no-nonsense" bad about - Legate and Aganzir. Strangely he lists Agan twice (adding "on" to the "bad Agan"). Is he hinting that Legate is dreamt of and evil while using Agan to make it less obvious to the wolves? He votes Lottie, but mentions he would have prefered Legate.

Day3:

Obviously, he now dreamt of Legate and clears him unmistakably.
He's very eager to lynch Inzil or Nessa. We know Inzil is innocent, and most likely he dreamt of Legate the night before. Since he didn't mention Nessa much before, I doubt he knows she's evil. My guess is he wants to get rid of enigmas so he won't be forced to waste dreams on them. He also votes innocent Inzil - if he had dreamt of Nessa, he wouldn't have done that. (He also seems uncertain of Nessa the next Day.)

Day4: List in #459:
If he dreamt of anyone guilty, it has to be Manwe, as he's his first item on the analysis list. This might explain why he's dead, even though there was a fair amount of suspicion against him.
He lists me as intermediate, so probably he hasn't dreamt of me after all.
He doesn't list anyone as clearly unsuspicious. He's hiding his known innocent well here.
The Green-Yellow-Red list in #460 is clearer:
Legate, Aganzir, Rikae dreamt of and innocent.
He lists nobody as red, though. Maybe he hasn't dreamt of Manwe and his fourth dream is already dead? Did he think listing Manwe as sole prime suspect would be too obvious?
The conclusion of his Manwe analysis is very condemning, but he was very negative about Legate before, too. What sets the two cases apart though:

That's as plain as it has to be.
His Cailín analysis in inconclusive, which suggests that he did not dream of her and it's just a regular analysis.
He keeps on talking about Agan being the cobbler, which either means he hasn't dreamt of Agan after all (which means he hasn't necessarily dreamt of Rikae either).

Mänwe: known wolf.
Legate: known innocent.
.. would be my conclusion.

Cailín, you aren't even considering Mänwe - are you sloppy or evil?
