You were so sure Fea was evil, but you were wrong. How are you so sure that you're not wrong this time?

Lommy is the seer, Brinniel and Sally are wraiths. This leaves:

Lari
Mirandir
Legate
Rikae
Aganzir
Beregond
Nerwen
Rune
Menel
Lily


One wraith, one Frodo (who probably cannot yet be distinguished). I'll try to come up with a more or less informed opinion on each before deadline.

Let's start with the easy ones.

Menel has trouble following the game, I think. I don't think he's a wraith - that would have shown in some way. He could very well be Ferny.

Rikae isn't technically an easy case, but I have no hope of figuring her out anyway. The amount of silliness and lack of sharpness points towards innocence, though.

I don't need to take a second look at Beregond: he's innocent. If he isn't he'd be one of the slickest newbie wolves I've ever seen.

1420! I don't *hic* care which of you ish the real *hic* innkeeper, jusht get another beer!

I'll let my Sally vote stand for now, as I can be reasonably sure she's a wraith. This seer business should clear itself up soon enough when we see who the wolves try to kill.

The only person here who really ought to worry about who is the real Seer at this point is the Ranger, whose task it will be to protect her tonight. The ranger should find out who is actually the seer by dawn tomorrow if she survives, and if she dies we'll know who to lynch. Of course, the wraiths could choose not to kill the Seer, but that probably wouldn't put them in a good position.

While I do think that sally is definitely a wraith (one of the few things both "seers" agree on), I agree with whoever said it earlier that it makes more sense for us to lynch Brinn. Her death will leave us with more information. So for now, I'll vote for her but reserve the ability to retract later if my over-tired brain comes up with something different or better justification.

You do of course realize that Brinn never said she dreamed me as a wraith. She said she dreamed me and I am a wraith. Big difference.


*snickers as she reads the bit about only having one retraction per day*



Just putting that possibility out there.

But Lommy did dream of you as a wraith (I think; I don't really have the time or energy to go sifting through a million back posts to find it) and she's the one I'm inclined to believe.

EDIT: x-ed with Berry and Nerwen

Wait, I'm back. Trip postponed due to bushfire danger (RL in these parts can get nearly as exciting as WW sometimes).

*scratches head* Both Seer-claimants say Sally is a wraith. Sally says Sally is a wraith... and you're only "reasonably" sure?

And if the Ranger chooses the wrong "Seer" to protect?
