I was getting to that.
I thought yesterDay that
Legate could have had a good reason for his reaction to
Eönwë's reveal (i.e. that
Eönwë could conceivably be an Acolyte who gets a kill one Night, a dream the next etc.), but by his own words that hadn't occurred to him until I suggested it. Going back and rereading his posts, I also notice that his wording was too strong to express mere reasonable doubt:

OK, elsewhere in the same post he says "It is of course still possible he is not lying", but this sounds like an attempt to discredit
Eönwë at any cost. There's also his insistence that
Eönwë should reveal his dreamed ordo, which would only have given the wolves a second best choice of kill in lieu of the (most likely protected) seer. All this does not look good.
What could speak for him is that he began to revise his position in #248 before other people began to suspect him (up to this it had been between him,
Nog and
Zil). But maybe he just realized that going all out against a revealed seer would get him into trouble.
I'm genuinely puzzled by him, because honestly, the way he's played doesn't make much sense either for an innocent
Legate or for a wolf-
Legate, but all in all, he does look more bad than good.
