I am not sure why we (myself and the other innocent) have been kept alive, except perhaps to heap further humiliations on us, as I cannot see how we can win now - the scenario you just sketched out, Anguirel, seems inescapable.

How you can talk about honour, though, without blushing, I do not know. I too was a fool, but I was an honest fool, I thought LMP was a wolf, or rather, I thought tar-a was NOT a wolf, which amounts to the same thing.

At least I've learnt a lesson. If you're a Villager, there's no point in carrying out Machiavellian schemes against the world. LMP has had his vengeance from beyond the grave. Ah well.

Of course, I suppose Eonwe could repay our generosity to the wolves by attacking you, Lalaith, instead of me, but then you'd probably hunt me rather than him anyway. Oh dear.

Barring more Mod miracles, we're doomed, but at least the original triumvirate will lie dead.

For my part, I am most grieved and shamed by the memory of the dead innocents who fought so wisely and bravely and will now lie unavenged. My apologies to them all for flinging away victory for the sake of 'sportsmanship'.

And whether you are wolf or innocent, Anguirel, I am glad that your hideous Hieronymus Bosch-like vision of a crowing jester on the pile of corpses did not become a reality. Better wolves victorious than that, I say.

Actually I was thinking Edgar Allan Poe. Hopfrog being my predominant influence...

I know, I know. And if you're the wolf, Eonwe, feel free to slay me. I deserve it.
