Nog, there's a marked difference in that nothing. I understand how you've come to the conclusions you've come to, I really do, but you're putting too much meaning into Brinn's actions just as much as Rikae accuses me of doing with hers. Seers can be mistaken in their opinions just like the rest of us. I trust Nerwen right now more than the lot of you put together, but that doesn't mean I know her role. Why? Because the only gifted left alive is the ranger, and the only information they have is from the first Night's kill. Thus, we're all in the same boat: none of us have any concrete information.

I understand giving her some benefit of the doubt. I understand why you think she might have (repeat, might have) been dreamt by the seer. What I don't understand is why you won't use your brain and look at what she's done rather than what others have said about her. If you do a careful, thorough reading of her posts and you still think she's innocent, then fine, but stop acting like it's a foregone conclusion.

Oh, and here's Rikae herself. Lovely.

And what is this nonsense about Dueling Wizards and the way I reacted to the Morsul lynch? What are you even talking about?
Here's what you're going to do. You're going to go back through the thread, especially the last two Days. You're going to see my posts. You're going to actually read them. Then you're going to come back and realize you know the answer to that question.

Actually, I didn't make the Dueling Wizards thing clear in my post yesterDay, which is my own fault, and thus I shall explain now.

I don't think you're actually referencing the game itself. I think you're gloating about wolf-on-wolf tactics (dueling, after all, and the wolves in this game being called wizards). I think you not only were willing to resort to bussing your packmates, but happy to do so, possibly even planning to do so, because you are clever enough to realize that sort of thing works. I think the "I always suspect him, simple as that" and Dun's "++Rik.... Not yet" were clever but telling comments. I think you went for him (and thus away from Morsul) the Day before yesterDay because you wanted a solid setup for sacrificing Dun if it became necessary, which I think it did when you saw that Cab had died. I think you needed that little bit of extra leverage to get into the position you're in toDay, which is that of a trusted innocent. I think you've put on quite a show, and I think it's brilliant, but I think you need to die.

The Morsul bit is here.

Oh, so you didn't read this post either.

"We've already lost," she says. "We just have to assume," she says. We don't have to do anything, which is why I think I'm getting so upset about all of this. There's no possibility for a case against you because people have already decided you've been dreamt by the seer. You can do anything you want, short of flat out saying you're a wolf, and the rest of the village will bat their flipping eyelashes and say, "Well, Brinn spoke nicely of her, and she hasn't been that bad, so we can't lynch her."


I know I'm getting rude about this, but I've seen wolves get away with being "seer-dreamt" before, and I have no intention of it happening again.


I need to be off of here for a while. I'm going to look at the rest of you again, just in case the wizard isn't Rikae, but I don't know when I'll be back (though knowing me, I won't be able to stay away for too long, because this is really, really starting to bother me).


x'd since the post of Rikae's I quoted
