I am horrified to find that this monstrosity has happened under my very nose. I cannot beleive that we have three murderous scoundrels on this island with us, oh the horror of it all, I have failed in my attempt to bring an aspect of spirituality to this island. But we need to remember what is written in the good book, whoever sheds the blood of man by man shall his blood be shed. We need to root out these wolves and put an end to their reign of terror for good.

Oh dear, such a tragedy. Holby...and the birds...*sniff*

I don't suppose anyone needs a basket? No? Well, a girl can hope, can't she?

I say we get out there and hunt down some werewolves!

let us examine what we have here

first of all, we have a death, killed by "wolf-men" or whatever you want to call them.
Second we have no way on earth of determining who is one of them, yet. Hopefully soon one of them will slip up and reveal himself to us, when/if that happens, we need to watch those who defend him, and those who are the first to accuse him. I will be keeping a careful eye on events as they unfold. I do not want to administer injustice and have some innocent blood on my hands.

Yeah, I wouldn't mind hearing more from Alcarillo, since we don't have a lot to go on. And now to The pan who be saucy's question. How did she die.

Well...*takes out a pipe, fills it, lights it, and begins to smoke*

They ran into the little shack and a pitiful sight met their eyes. Holby, the pigeon-girl, was still in bed lying in a pool of her own blood.

Well, I'd say question number one (as it's the first piece of information) is how the door was knocked down. The entire description of her death is fairly vague. The only people we know of that are skilled in arms are Mormegil (blacksmith), SaucepanMan (big beefy lumberjack), and Alcarillo (silversmith). This is just arms mind you, and I have no doubt the wolves could use their bear (get it? bear! ) claws to knock it down. In terms of who wields what, we know that Mormegil makes swords, and saucy likes his axe. And of course, the most deadly weapon of all, Márcolië Lamen with the calculus book ; ). There are no mentions of marks on the door, but I have no doubt arms would help. They aren't necesarily my prime suspects, but it is something to keep watch on, I guess. Also, let us not forget that the hunter and the ranger also bear arms. Once again, the people I have listed are not necesarily on my suspect list, since I have not made a list yet, and it is too early to tell.


In terms of a bloody pool, that's fair wolves game. And as for the birds, well...smart planning, or someone hates birds. Either way, it's too vague to tell. Any ideas anyone? If you want, you can think it over with some pipeweed. If no one has anywhere else to turn, I myself would be intrigued in Alcarillo's defence from Gil-Galad's acusations.
