Who says the Seer even knows the results of the dreams? Why would he/she know Nerwen was lying?

So the seer's dreams of just one Night are sent to someone else instead of him/herself? That sounds random and not very likely.

It would be very useful if it was believed the Seer was about to die though.

Perhaps the power of the unknown role is he/she can take the Seer double-dream and have them sent to a random Living innocent on a night of his/her choosing. BUT, in order to make the power work correctly, the unknown has to correctly guess the Seer.

So, perhaps the Unknown believed Legate was the Seer and was about to die, and so chose to use the power. But because the Unknown incorrectly identified the Seer, the power still worked but as a consequence the dreams were sent to a Baddie.
OR as a consequence an innocent dream subject (Mac) was killed and labelled as guilty.
OR if Lottie is lying about the kill, the incorrectly guessed Seer (Legate) is killed and the dream is sent to a Baddie.

If this is the correct version, I'll eat my hat... Oh, I don't have one - well the next time I meet tp I'll bow very low indeed and buy him a dinner.

Could be the mystery role at work, either intercepting for herself (in case it's Nerwen), forwarding it more or less randomly, or forcing the seer to forward it to somebody else (with or without seeing it themselves).
