Tol-In-Gauroth XXIV: Battle of the Band[Wagon] - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Celuien · 10-01-2006, 09:46 AM

There has been a half hour reprive on the deadline.

This is very frustrating. I don't have time to go back through the thread now because of the deadline and Downs being down for so long. Boro is still making me nervous, but I'll trust Folwren's judgment for now and let that pass. I think she's probably innocent.

Also frustrating is that I see Glirdy coming up as a chief lynching candidate. Please don't. I really, really think that he's not guilty.

The only votes are two for Glirdy, one for Folwren and one for Durelin. I believe, but don't know that Folwren is innocent. I'm sure that Glirdy is. And I don't know about Durelin, but think she's innocent.

I want to save Glirdy. What can I do?

Diamond18 · 10-01-2006, 09:50 AM

I think I'm going to vote for Mac. I'm not going to commit till closer to the actual cut off time, though.

Diamond18 · 10-01-2006, 09:52 AM

I don't want to vote for Folwren, Durelin, or Glirdan, but of those three would vote Glirdan. As of right now it wouldn't matter, though. So I'd still vote Mac.

Well, I'll go where I have to, though I'm not sure about Mac. I am certain about Glirdan, and I'd rather save someone I'm fairly certain is innocent.

Diamond18 · 10-01-2006, 09:58 AM

++Mac

Celuien · 10-01-2006, 09:58 AM

Thank you, Durelin.

++MAC

I hope he's a wolf. I have my doubts. But at least Glirdy is safe.

Durelin · 10-01-2006, 09:57 AM

Alright, I'm going with my original suspicion. Though now that he's voted for me, I'm a little less suspicious... At least, I don't think it wise for a wolf to actually vote for his accuser. Glirdan's being odd, and I see he already has...two votes? Well, as I recall that's rather normal Glirdan. But my memory fails me quite a lot...

At any rate, I don't feel I've seen enough yet to vote for him, particularly since he's already got a couple.

Hrmm.

Eh, it has to be... Two minutes left?

This might help you two decide, Di and Cel.

I did not say anything but boromir made a bit nervouse already yesterday, the reason for me not saying anything is because I wanted to observe him first.

I cannot go show the evidence due to conection problems and lack of time.

He in his agreeing with me, he kind of shifted the focus from him to me, I might be overanalysing, but it could be a way of securing him self if people found his arguments suspiciouse. .

there is more, but it will have to wait.

++Boromir

sorry for all

Celuien · 10-01-2006, 10:07 AM

Arrgh. I feel like I'm yelling at the walls.

the guy who be short · 10-01-2006, 10:16 AM

Really this time.

Sleepy will come and write up a death post later.

Sleepy Ranger · 10-01-2006, 12:08 PM

Alright. Glirdan and Mac are both tied at three votes.

Mac is an innocent.
Glirdan is the hunter.
Glirdan takes Folwren (another innocent) with him.

I'm busy at present but I shall have their deaths up soon.

Sleepy Ranger · 10-02-2006, 06:09 AM

It was time for death. Glirdan and Macalaure were both lined up and the ones who would live to see tomorrow watched them, wondering how to end their lives. Whilst they thought Folwren stepped up and said, "While you think I shall sing a song which I feel fits this moment." No sooner had she said that that the phantom band began to play. Caught by surprise Folwren nearly fell over but she managed to stay on her feet and began to perform.

You've cried wolf to often
And now there is no place to hide
And you've made your own coffin
By keeping all your fears inside of your heart

Don't wait 'till tomorrow
'Cause what if tomorrow doesn't come
You'll wait until it's just too late
And thing's'll be fallin' in on you.

Look out they're falling.
Look out they're falling near you.
Look out they're falling. . .

Before she could finish however Glirdan smacked his guitar against Folwren's skull. She dropped flat, face first onto the ground. Glirdan did not let up though, he struck his guitar against her head over and over. It had broken as had her skull. Glirdan struck so fast that nobody had any time to react even Folwren could barely complete a scream. She passed out as blood stained her face and trickled down her back, forming a pool around her.

Glirdan stood over her breathing heavily. Nothing happened. She just lay there motionless. She did not transform. She was just dead. "I... I was wrong..." said Glirdan. Glirdan the hunter. He raised his hands trying to explain the situation to the rest but when he opened his mouth it was not words that escaped but a scream, a rather disgruntled Thinlomien had thrown a large rock at him.

It struck him in his stomach and he doubled over as Nogrod pierced his eyes with a loose guitar string. Glirdan, now blinded, shrieked and flailed around aimlessly. Boromir88 shoved him away from the crowd and straight into the fatal magical barrier that was meant to keep them in. Glirdan would have been wide eyed had Nogrod left him with any. He did not pop. He shrieked.

Glirdan was being streched. This time there was a pop as his left arm unattached itself from his body, followed by his right arm. Next to go were his legs. Glirdan then dropped to the ground, a bloody mess. The survivors turned around sickened by what they had just seen and as they did they saw Macalaure.

They had nearly forgotten about him as he stood there silently. They looked at one another. They more or less all agreed there had been too much blood spilled but Macalaure would have to go. He had been voted to go after all. "Please, my friends. I know you wish to kill me but I request you let me play one last melody on my harp." Said Macalaure calmly. "Do not listen to him! He is a wolf!" came a cry from the crowd.

"Silence!" Said Celuien commandingly and snatched up a stray violin. She pulled out a string and pricked her finger. "Will do." She said softly and stood near Macalaure. "You may begin but one false move and you're dead." She had the string aimed at his neck and there was not so much as a bead of sweat on her skin.

Macalaure played calmly, touching the hearts of nearly all who were there. "Oh enough of this. Just do away with him already." came Durelin's agitated voice. "Will you shut up and let us enjoy the music?" Said The Ka in response. "Both of you. Silence." Cried Celuien waving her arms.

Unfortunately she thrust her arm a bit too far and stabbed Macalaure through his neck. "Oh my..." she said as she drew it out. "Sorry." And with that she inserted it through his heart and lay it to rest. This day had not gone well. Three deaths, no wolves and there was still the night to come. As they retreated to the Tavern they hoped that the morning would bring better news.

Only eight of the nine that had gone to sleep awoke that day. They assembled in the lounge but there was no dead body there. No trace of death what so ever. They took a head count but that only resulted in eight. One was missing. "Did you count yourself?" asked Celuien, sounding like a school teacher. "Here, let me... one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight..." One was missing.

"Where is my guitar?" Asked Nogrod all of a sudden. This led to a bit of a murmur. It turned out everyone's instruments had vanished. When the search indoors proved fruitless they head outside and there, at the shell, was some sort of weird disfigured rack holding all their instruments. They slowly approached it and when they did arrive they wished they had not. It was Diamond18.

She had been twisted, broken, snapped and all other such delightful words which had resulted in her becoming their new instrument holder. "I don't think I want to play anymore..." muttered Thinlomien softly. There was a note near by.

Friends,
Time is scarce. Things have tourned sour. Diamond18 was your seer but do not despair there are things you do not see, things you do not know. Perhaps in the end this will work in your favor. I must be quick for I fear if I am found out there shall be nothing preventing the wolves from picking you all off. Your numbers have dwindled greatly.

I wish you luck!
