Valier dead?? Oh dear... Who shall I buy my tomatoes from to cook my meals at night? And Naria as well? Who will massage my feet after I ran after Farael ( )?

I've heard about things along these lines happening in other villages, but they had Wolves!! By the looks of things, we're dealing with something along the same lines. We must band together and find these creatures as soon as possibly can!

I must depart for the time being but I will return later on.

1420! I think this calls for a stiff drink

Ewwwww, what a way to go. Is someone going to scrape poor Naria up? And listen to the lot of you... wailing about who you're going buy your tomatoes from and who's going to massage your stinky feet. For shame! Poor Valier and Naria are dead and all you can think about is yourselves.

Oh well, seeing as it is my job to administer numbing drink, here's a round to make you feel better. Don't look to ME to massage your feet, though. And if you want tomatoes, just do what my cousin does and steal them from Farmer Ringgworm's crop. But you didn't hear that from me.

Now that those important problems have been addressed, what's all this about three cats taking over our village? Over my dead hobbit body! I'll be back to figure out who these sinister felines are. First I must get more ale.

Ha! Fool of a Took. What, exactly, is it that you do around here? Do you dance, perhaps?

And that's Miss Took, to you. *nods*

Well, considering this is the first day, and my name is Eonwe, I'm sure you all know what to expect, no?

I for one am taking these felines seriously. I'm leaving. Seriously, run for the hills.

No, what should I expect?

Time to don my cap with two feathers and do my job, which means I must leave the inn earlier than I would like.

Interesting that Farael and Diamond are already at each others throats. Seems like typical werecats to me...always fighting amongst themselves. Don't know if it means anything but it's worth keeping in mind.

This, morm, is my typical (and mostly copywrited) opening game shpeal/gambit, depending on my team status.

[shpeal]
You can be sure that nothing will be gleaned from anything anyone says today. TODAY, mind you. That doesn't mean that the events of tomarrow will not shed some light on today's circumstances. Voting is useless. Who are you going to vote for, and how? If my above statement is correct (rest assured, it is) than how do YOU make you choise, eh?

Of course, there is some strategems that are easily recognizable, and I'm not ruling out any ineptitude on behalf of our wolves, er cats, that is. Miricles happen as well, so bandwagon away, I say. However, I don't expect people to be voting on what clearly amount to jokes and frivolous timepassing. Accusation is all well and good for Day 1, but suspicion should be reserved for Tomarrow at the least.

Oh and I'll be voting for the seventh person on the list. Why, you ask? Because today is the 27th, and if you subtract 20, you are left with 7. That's why.
[/shpeal]

There you have it. Nonsense? Sure. Mostly I'm joking, but you can't deny that it isn't hard for a cat (this is going to be hard to get used to) to run free and rampant today, can you? However, if you have a better way, I'll surely throw this one out.

I come to lament the deaths of fair Naria and Valier. They have been kind to this old warhorse.

I sit here - flanked- by two fine black cats. Good mousers that I have kept throughout my journeys. (The fat one is getting a bit lazy and has grown accustomed to spare fat from my carvings.)

I believe this will give me insight into these Werecats in our midst. However, they have been domesticated for a thousand years and hardly compare to the feline hell-spawn in our midst.

I think that, at least, one of the felines has visited us early--drunk or high on catnip from the power given them.

I will likely vote for one of the first three visitors to the village.
