Marcolie....

Now why would the wolves kill Marcolie? Quite frankly, I find this an odd choice on the part of the Wolves... Marcolie has, thus far, been a slightly suspicious member of the village. Her name came up a great deal in the last couple days as a potential danger. For the Wolves to kill her suggests that they aren't interested in keeping a lot of suspicious people around- which suggests that the remaining Werewolves are receiving very little attention or suspicion from the village, if they are keen to kill off someone who wasn't threatening anyone vehemently yesterday, and who was a good potential alternative suspect to themselves....

I agree with Glirdan that it was a very smart choice for the Wolves to make, since it leaves only a faint trail. It also makes me think that we should look at a somewhat different list of Villagers today. The people, in fact, who had NOTHING to do with Marcolie.

Also, looking at the list, it seems to me that we are running low on Ordinary, Innocent Villlagers. Only about a third of us are in that category... Interesting, how the Werewolfing trends of late have meant fairly long survival for Gifteds and Werewolves. An an Innocent Villager, that troubles me... as a possible Cursed, it intrigues me...
