The Pearl, The Lily Maid

*JennyHallu walks up with an odd-shaped wooden contraption. She sets it down, adjusts it carefully, and walks away as it begins to produce all manner of delicate breathy un-melody. As she sits by the campfire, she wipes a tear from her eye*
Ah, I am just such a maestra. Anyway, to settle down to business, the WORLD is GOING to END. Eventually. Someday. Soon. But not today. At least not if I can help it. These malevolent monsters may indeed be the sound of Armageddon, but I have lived my life with one goal, and one goal only: to die peacefully in my sleep, like my grandfather. Not screaming like the passengers in his car. These wolves offend my sensibilities. The end of the world should be a calm, civilized affair. No blood. I am all for killing them first, and certainly I believe it can be done today.

It is usually considered bad form to make direct reference to other games, much less link to them.

*ding* *ding* My triangle sure sounds good doesn't it? Well I must get this out of the way quickly... YOU SHALL NOT PASS FOUL HOUND OF SAURON I AM WEILDER OF THE FLAME OF ARNOR....Well perhaps I'll just remove my cloak here...." Glad to see Formendacil is still intransignet in his stance on Day 1's. Odds are a bit better with 3 of them and 9 of us now isn't it?

The impudence of these so called "music lovers" makes me sick. If any of you truly knew what music, I think I'd die of a faint.
Now, on to more pressing matters: Wolves. In a Music Camp. Whoever hear of that!? I mean, do Wolves even like music!? Anyway, the only way we can find out is by tuning(ha! I made a pun!) them out and ridding ourselves of them. Then we can REALLY get to playing music. Quote:

May I ask why we must discuss previous villages? Tis a bad thing to do, especially since none of them are musically inclined and all have had a different outcome. Just because you can judge somebody from how they played in one game doesn't mean you should in another, especially if someone decided to change their playing style. So, I would much rather focus our discussions toDay on something more useful. What, I cannot say at this time. But when an idea comes to mind, I shall come forth and let my saxophone tell the story. Until then, adieu.

Ahh Werewolves!!!!
![]() I say we catch these fiends and make them pay! Oh poor Valesse and Gil-galad! Not that I won't miss the racket they both mad when they played together....yyyeeccckkk! But what has been done to them is wrong, just wrong! I know the first Day is maddening and sometimes dull, but we must make the best of it and do what we can. If we hear from everyone toDay, that gives us a little to go on and something to base our suspicions on later on in the Days to come.

But my point remains. Quote:
Day1 can make the difference - and that's why I wished to show you an example. Just check how the game can be played! There, it's not a question of luck, but of an athmosphere where everyone had to show some real participation - so the wolves (ie. penguins) couldn't hide behind the babble of pure in-character talk or the distaste of Day1's - and they were caught (one on Day one - and the others very soon on the basis of Day1 things, and they were no stupid penguins...)! And now I'm shooting myself to my leg as I have to say that I'm not going to be in for a while (a bio & first post upgrade + scheming with Celuien in the Meadhall waiting, pronto, and the clock says it's 3.25AM here). But after I wake up, I'll be in with more substance - if possible.

Ecco! Something just occurred to my fantastically enlightened brain!
(Maestro, make sure that portrait is of my right side. We want to get the flute in proper perspective.) It seems to me that perhaps Signore Formendacil could be acting just a shade manipulative. His predictions could be a cleverly concealed tactic to direct behavior in a particular direction...since once predictions are announced, people have a tendency to perversely do the opposite. However, this might speak in his favor since he's lamenting... (more polenta, per favore...) ...the lack of effective action on DAY ONE. Still, it could be a clever little tactic. I do so love clever little tactics! Like this one time I'd hidden my cavalry in a ravine behind the enemy's flank, and...

Werewolves, eh?
Ah! All the misfortunes of Arda seem to come upon me! Who is going to buy my funny occupations now in this state of fear and insecurity? And I cannot even find relief in my music anymore with these hairy, bloodthirsty creatures appearing to cower behind my back any minute. Woe upon us all! What to do now, what to do... It is true that my father, who succumbed to the Helcaraxë (and the Angperor Penguin), lived in a village which was able to lynch a wolf on Day 1, but many happy and unhappy circumstances lead to this, so I am not very optimistic at all. 3 wolves, 9 innocents, 25% a chance, it doesn't get any better than that, I fear. But if somebody has an idea to improve it I would very much like to hear about it. Anyway, given the disastrous reputation of Days 1's, I doubt it. And by the way: Quote:
