Ahhhhhh! Did me and Nog miss the deadline?

Not that it matters, I guess, since we canceled each others votes. I didn't realize it was so strict (or 1am so close). I guess you need to have the house clocks syncronized.

The day was full of heated debate. As the sun set and the villager cast their votes a few narrowly made the deadline. The verdict was in and it looked as though Durelin was going to be sent to the gallows.

“Hooded and cloaked, obviously this be a wraith!” Someone screamed. “Never seen someone so suspicious in all my days.”

“Being a mysterious figure is not an admission of my guilt!” Durelin cried out.

It was a shame really, the mysterious figure who sat in dark corners all around town had really never done anything to anyone. But that was neither here nor there. Durelin was pegged as a wraith and and no amount of pleading was going to change anyone's mind. Those who had also fallen under heavy suspicion breathed a collective sigh of relief. Especially Mac who narrowly missed the noose for the second day in a row.

Durelin was marched along to the gallows. It had been sometime since Bree had used them and for years the hangman had made a pleasant living as a traveling juggler. But he found himself back in the same old place faced with the sour face of Durelin, the hooded and cloaked figure.

The noose was slipped on and Durelin was asked to present any last words. Thinking for a moment she opened her mouth to speak, “You all suck.” The trap door was opened and she fell through. Her neck broke instantly and so the suffering was not prolonged.

But like the day before nothing happened. Durelin was innocent of any crime.
