Werewolf CXIII: Death at Deadmen's Dike - GAME THREAD

[Boromir88]

Freeze...ease...jeez...deez...bees...bees-neez...pleas...plain white tees...fees...sees...wheeze...

[Huinesoron]

Drop to a half-rhyme and use 'gaze'?

Are we hunting murderers or rhymes here, anyway?

[Rune Son of Bjarne]

Words can hurt too, man.

If they can hurt, then surely they can kill as well.

[Lalaith]

"Death to cattle, death to kindred, death to every mortal man..."

The fell voice on the air echoed across the ruins of Fornost Erain...as it so often did.
The voice halted briefly over the broken Blossom.
"But one thing never dies...the good name of one who has won renown".

Alas poor friend...I would tarry a while to pay her a tribute of lament. But then we must gird our collective loins, be they animal, vegetable, mineral or ethereal, to heed the warning she left us...where to start looking? Not all of us are met, yet...

[Inziladun]

Why must those murderous outsiders come here to disturb us? Isn't there room enough for them over all the woods and fields those on two legs shun?

I can see this a job indeed. Would that a warrior of some sort was among us. Like this fellow:

What would Fezzik say?
Do you not want to play?

Ok, ok, no more rhymes. I mean it.
*think serious**think serious*
Look out for the PIT!

A poet? So be it.

In Deadmen's Dike the dead still dwell
And countless creatures grim and fell
Who harry mortals who chance by.
Yet though Men from this place will fly
An older fear lies o'er the land,
A darkness from the Dark Lord's hand.

The Blossom falls, yet all in mirth
Cavort the creatures of the earth
And sky, who ought by rights to seek
Her slayers dire. The noisome reek
Of werewolves rises from her grave.
Yet who shall seek this town to save?

Not Boromir, who poems cries
While Blossom's soul in anguish sighs!
Thrice he has spoken, thrice in jest,
Delighting the Wight (and all the rest).
So to find the one who wrought this fate,
I look to the warg who's always late!

[Rune Son of Bjarne]

I am all for a bit of early day one banter and randomness, but are we really going to let the wolves hide behind rhymes?


Anyways, Huinesoron would you like to elaborate on the lines below?

Sure:

That.

Beyond that final line, I was indicating that I find Boro's three posts without anything other than rhyming banter to be the mildest of suspicious. Yes, it's early Day One and all - but to make that many posts without even a single mention of the whole werewolf/murder thing seems a bit odd. I thought it was strange after two posts (hence my question, 'Are we hunting murderers or rhymes?'); his lack of a shift in response to that was enough for me to throw out the more explicit post in verse.

My bad, I had forgotten Boro's true purpose, so I thought you might be referring to someone else.

I am inclined to agree with you. Boromir's posts are a good way of seeming active/productive, without offering anything in the form of actual progress. Though it probably seem worse than it actually is due to the lack of activity in general...

Whereas no wolf has ever hidden behind cries of "woe, murder, everybody start some serious wolf-hunting!", yes? There's being unproductive, and there's trying a bit too hard.
