I have to vote now and I just don't know anymore! I've made the wrong call so often now that I can hardly make my decision. It will be between Amanaduial and Menel toDay, that much I can gather from the voting and I shall therefore not be a coward and vote for someone else. Please look at Malkatoj tomorrow, if I'm not there anymore (I doubt it because I still think it's most likely the wolves will go for our Hunter next - though they might attempt to catch the ex-Apprentice).

And now I shall do something I have never done before and you shall probably never see me doing again. Trust to fate. *rolls a die* It is:

Amanaduial

But, and this is going to sound silly, as I was writing her name down, I got a bad feeling. And I think that says more than any random roll of dice.

++MENELTARMACIL

You must be a wolf. At least, I very much hope you are. And if you're not, you're a creep anyway.

I hope I did not confuse or puzzle you all too much with this post. Good luck and I pray you all vote wisely. Also, Naria, I trust you make the right decision toNight.

Well...The voting so far stands

Aman-2 (menel and Naria)
Menel-3 (Malka, Aman, and Cailin)

I must say, Menel's pretty-much unexplained vote for Aman has given me pause. In the meantime, I'm going to withold voting for now, since it still feels early in relation to the length of time we have. But I'm definitely leaning more toward Menel than I was before.

How I Rate People
by Rune

Lhuna and Naria = Innocent.

Cailin - Seems pretty Innocent to me, but if Menel or Malkatoj turn out not beeing wolves I will be ready to rethink this.

Farael - I have no clue. I have not really payed any atention to him and that allways worries me.

Amanaduial- All the talk that have concerned her of late have made me rethink my opinion of her. Might be a wolf, but I got she will not be on my list right away

Azaelia - Seems innocent to me.

My two top suspects remains Meneltarmacil and Malkatoj.

++Meneltarmacil

Azaelia of Willowbottom · 01-20-2006, 05:28 PM

I've done some more thinking...and I have decided that Menel seems most wolfish....Unexplained votes are a pet peeve of mine, especially this far from Day 1. I am willing to let Aman's largely-unexplained vote for Menel go because she posted saying that she legitimately had reasons but had no time to write them. I still recommend that you hunt Aman, Naria, but I'm sure you have your own strategy planned out and all

So without further ado, a vote for

++Menel

Lhunardawen · 01-20-2006, 08:34 PM

Menel - Aman
malka - Menel
Naria - Aman
Aman - Menel
Cailín - Menel
Rune - Menel
Zali - Menel

So the voting's down to me and Farael, and if I'm not mistaken he said he won't be able to post toDay. So it's down to just me.

Even if I vote for Aman, Menel will still be our lynchee. And right now I'm not exactly worried about having him lynched. If he really is our second wolf, does anyone have any suggestions about who the subject of my next dream should be? I'm thinking malka, but you might have better ideas.

And if Menel's not a wolf - we should be looking at the silent ones, especially Zali and malka, perhaps even Rune and Farael even if I still can't picture them as our remaining wolves. And if ever they are, well, I'll hate them for the rest of my life.

And if one of them turns out to be Cailín, however unlikely...

I'm still not very sure about Aman.

Naria, please choose your next huntee well. I'm not sure if I will die toNight, but hopefully I don't if Menel turns out to be a wolf. And please hope that I ask him the right question, in that case.

I think you would be in title to do so; infact if I will hate my self for the rest of my life, if I turn out a wolf. Imagin not telling my self of such a thing. (this was just a silly remark, please do not be confused and kill me)

Rune Son of Bjarne · 01-20-2006, 08:46 PM

Sorry for dubble posting.

Lhuna you seem to have made a mistake. Malkatoj votet Meneltarmacil just like last Day.

I'll hold you to that, Rune.

Imagine being a wolf without knowing it...

Sorry. I need a bit of a laugh, you know.

Why, I have! You really can't blame me for that, can you? I've been under much stress...

I wonder what this means, further cover for herself? After all it's nearly the end, for good or ill...

After Alcarillo’s death, the only thing that the village could decide on was that they didn’t want to kill Lhunardawen. After the better part of a week, two Werewolves still remained hidden in their midst- and about those two Werewolves, the villagers each had some very specific ideas.

The most prevalent idea of the day was that Meneltarmacil was guilty. The dweller on the edge of town had always been considered creepy, but he also seemed more silent than usual, and the remaining villagers were jumpy. Taking his distraction for a sign of Wolfishness, they chose him as their victim.

“What…” said Meneltarmacil, snapping out of his trance. “You’re lynching… me!”

“I believe that is what I just said,” said Naria, the self-proclaimed Huntress having taken on the persona of village law enforcement.

“But… you can’t!” said Meneltarmacil. “I’m the new Ranger!”

“You’re just saying that to get out of a sticky situation!” said Amanaduial.

“I notice that it doesn’t hurt you any,” said Farael.

“No, seriously!” said Meneltarmacil. “Alcarillo’s been training me for months!”

“There’s no way to know short of lynching you,” said Naria. “If we let you live, we’ll never KNOW!”

“I won’t let you do this to the village!” said Meneltarmacil, grabbing his sword. “This is idiocy.”

“What this is,” said Naria, “is following the rules.” She drew her own blade.

Meneltarmacil lunged at Naria, dodging her blows, and attacking with his own.

“You have some skill,” said Naria. “But swordsmanship does not a ranger make.”

“She’s getting a little arrogant, isn’t she?” said Malkatoj to Cailín.

“Oh please!” said Rune, “enough fighting!”

“The village rules were agreed to by Meneltarmacil,” said Lhuna, hard. “He was selected for death today.”

“That’s cruel!” said Rune.

“Careful, or you’ll be next,” said Amanaduial.

Meanwhile, the duel was ending poorly for Meneltarmacil. Naria was clearly the more experienced of the two, and soon he lay, swordless, on the ground.

“Go ahead!” he said, “end it!”

“Any last words?” said Naria.

“I’d rather they weren’t…” said Meneltarmacil, “but if you insist… Then I’m going to say that you’re all idiots. It’s a classic quote, and quite appropriate.”

And in a blow, Naria’s sword crashed down and Meneltarmacil’s life ended. Severed with his neck was a silver chain.

“Look!” said Cailín, pulling it out of the dead man’s tunic. “The Tree of the Kings! Meneltarmacil was the APPRENTICE RANGER, after all.”

“I guess we are idiots,” said Amanaduial.

Day 6 is over, Night 7 is in session. I am waiting for my nightly names. Day 7 will begin at the normal time.
