Tol-in-Gaurhoth XV-The Villagers Strike Back!

[WaynetheGoblin]

Well I will tell you now that I will be posting longer post. Im scared because heros win everthing. Poor poor anguirel he always helped me to find a fairy so I could eat it. I think we should look at eomer because he comes and look what happend a werewolf got killed. Good-bye I am going to a birthday party.

[Glirdan]

Ang, Ang, my dear friend Ang. Tis a sad fate that which you met. You always chose the best meat in the store (not that there's any bad meat for Wolves). I will miss you dearly. I think there is also someone else we should look at. A certain Rune perhaps? A Wolf in Shepards clothing? Or is he a Hero disguised as a Wolf in Shepards clothing? I also agree with morm and Wayne. We need to keep a close eye on that Warg Eomer. He could be trouble. I will be back later. I need to go tend to the meats.

[Eomer of the Rohirrim]

Well of course you should all be looking at me. Rarely have you lot had a chance to glance upon the glory and beauty of a Warg. But I expected to be suspected. It's very easy to pick on those different from you.

Poor Anguirel. He was, as far as I could tell, a fine wolf. Black-hearted and mean, just the type of character I could respect; and just the type this island needs. Now, who among you wolves is willing to hunt down these Elves and show them no mercy, as opposed to spending precious time bickering over petty lupine politics?

[Oddwen]

Heroes amongst us? *howls* I hate Heroes. And they taste so bitter...

I say we killkillkillkillhahahaaa*howwwwwwwlllllll*

But who? The Fairy Eater? The Warg?

But first, onto breakfast!

Ooh, prey tell, when do you have had a chance to plunge your teeth into a hero?

How convenient for a Big bad wolf to suggest that... Although, it's true that we need to have strong lycans to fight the heroes. Look at what they did to Anguirel - they must have chosen him just because he was injured.

Now, it's soon time for me to take a nap, but I want to say this first: this is not a diner! Let's not discuss who would make a best meal but who is most likely to be a hero.

Oh, and Glirdan, don't forget this:

Seems like a confession, indeed. But this Werewolf In Denial of ours seems more like a mental case than a hero. Although... What's this sudden quarrel between you two, eh?

Fun too!

I see that you wargs are thrifty on courage too.

Now I would also question our butcher? Since when do we need our meat cut for us. It seems to me that he could be one of those vicious, foul bright eyes and deserves my fangs in his weak flesh. I say we kill Glirdan!

[Glirdan]

I know he's a Crabby Old Wolf, but morm is getting a little out of hand and jumping around a lot. Being a butcher was the only thing I knew how to do before I became a blessed Wolf.

I'm agreeing with Oddwen. Why would a Wolf want to eat fairies for food? They're magical and taste disgusting because of the magic!! And Lhuna. A Girl-Who-Cried Wolf? What's the deal with that? Is she insane!? Or is it a cover for a hairy little secret she has.

[The Saucepan Man]

**GRRRRRRROOOOWWWWWLLLLL!!!**

Be afraid! Be very afraid! For the Big Bad Wolf is here ...

Contrary to Mannish folklore, Villagers have much to fear for me. For I am admirably equipped with huff and suitably arrayed with puff, and I have more than enough to blow their houses down.

Heroes, eh? Why, let us have some sport with them. Let us hunt them down and tear them limb from limb. Let us search them out and devour them 'til nothing be left of them. We have nothing to fear from them, for they are cowardly fools who dare only to strike during the day, while we sleep. They can be no match for a group of fine Wolves such as us (well, most of us). So let us avenge the death of our fallen comrade, Anguirel.

I say that, in fine Wolvish tradition, we pick on the weakest among us first. So that would be:

Eomer, a paltry Warg.
Kitanna, a mere Beta Wolf
Oddwen, yet but a whelp
and
Kath, a useless runt.

What say you, fellow beasts?

Now, how'd you know that they're Elves, eh?

Surely you mean a hairless little secret? Or are you more used to hunting Wolves than trying to be one ...?

[Glirdan]

The first one. (I'm so used to saying hairy!! I'll have to get used to changing it.) I meant hairless, yes.

[Gurthang]

Well, whatever we decided to do, let's do it and get somebody dead! I'm a bit hungry, so the longer we wait the madder I'll be. True, Anguirel's body is right there and no one's taken to it, yet he was a rather old fart and so his meat isn't tender like I love.

Also, I say we look at our Big Bad Puffing Saucepan Wolf. Or maybe I should be saying Saucepan Man! Really, as long as I've ever heard of him, he's been a blooming innocent man every stinkin' time. I'm not so sure his heart has turned as black as we would want! I say he's still a villager, even if the odds have changed a bit!

But I do like the idea of killing them youngsters. They've got to be very tender indeed! Although, I do have to admit that Oddwen's a bloodthirsty fiend after my own death-loving heart. I'd keep her for now, but if my choice was to be made on the spot, I'd choose that little runt, Kath.

Ah, but my memory tingles! I seem to remember Nonnacedak somehow never being around for a kill, yet always showing up for a piece of the meat! That's foul and even by a wolfish standard! I say out with thieving scavenger!

[Mithalwen]

Well sweeties, I have been listening to what you have had to say since poor darling Anguirel was slain, and here are my observations.

I have noticed that sometimes novice wolves we have sent into villages make the mistake of speaking too much too soon & being too effusive in praise of the dead. Now Anguirel was a fine figure of a wolf and I shall miss him but I very much doubt he spent much time chasing fairies .... That was really not his style. So what was the point of Wayne's post. But Wayne is Wayne and unpredictable.

I find it a little odd that the first three to speak all accuse Eomer to some extent. Too crude to think that three little heroes were sticking their necks out in a row but I wouln't be surprised if one of them was not so furry as they like to seem. Interesting though how when they speak again - having all spoken against Eomer they start to turn on each other.

Mormegil speaks against Glirdan. Glirdan against Wayne. In some ways that might be seen as natural wolf behaviour but in the light of the early mini band-wagon, I have my doubts.

Oddwen's post is insubstantial and merely echoes the already voiced suspicions of Wayne and the Warg.

Eomer deflects accusations but only Gurthang of those who have barked so far has not named him as a suspect. While I hold that this pack should be welcoming of those of other cultures who seek sanctuary in our land the sole condition is that they must be wolfish through and through.

Which brings me to the Big Bad Saucepanwolf. I note that while he picked up on Glirdan's slip he made an interesting one of his own.

"Villagers have much to fear for me". Shouldn't that be from? Or is it that your fellow villages fear for your hame - or perhaps your skin? Anguirel's death creates a vacancy... maybe you think you will now be the biggest beast in this forest.

Well I think that will do for now. Time for a tincture, kitten's blood on the rocks methinks. See you later darlings...
