Back later than I expected, and having to try and catch up quickly. I guess we're voting? I see Lal put in a vote for Nerwen. As I was driving back, it had occurred to me that I might do the same, as Nerwen has seemed maybe a little more guarded than usual, and if innocent, would be a great asset in the Dead Thread.

But I'm open to another if someone else jumps out from the flurry I missed.

I don't want to spread the votes out too much so..

++Loslote

She has worked very hard to be helpful, which could go sour for us if she's evil. I can't help but think how clever it would be for a baddie to be the first one to come up with the idea of a no-lynch toDay in an attempt to avoid suspicion. I know I'm grasping at straws, but for Day 1, that's all I've got.

If I'm wrong however, I do think her helpfulness will be good for us in the Dead Thread.

EDIT: X-ed with multiple posts

Can we get one more ++Boro for a no lynch?

EDIT: Thanks, Boro!

Boots NIGHT Two

(Somebody should do a tally and comparison of crazy ends to DAY 1...I'd have to think this is one of the more frantic...my compliments.)

~~~~~Our Tale~~~~~

"I refuse to participate in this," cried one. "Let's behead Kuru!"

"Agreed," shouted the rest.

This proved fruitless. Kuru didn't seem to be around...and they still couldn't find a way out.

"I still refuse to participate in this ridiculous, pointless lynch mob!" said one. "We still have no proof that anything nefarious is afoot...except for Kuru kidnapping us and stranding us here!"

"Yeah!"

"I agree!"

"What will we do now?" asked one.

"Well, there seems to be nothing else to do except move in to our little chambers for the moment," replied another.

"Whatever we do, let's stay away from that awful guillotine!" said yet another.

"Yes, I won't participate in a pointless lynch mob," declared a speaker.





"I will," one said suddenly.

"Me too, no problem," said another.

"So will I!"

"And me!"

"Don't leave me out," said one of the previous speakers who said they didn't want anything to do with the guillotine.

"Me either!"

"Or me!"

"That's it!" cried one. "I've had enough of this! It seems the only way out of this situation is for me to use the guillotine on myself! Don't try to stop me! I shall invoke the traditional sacred cry of one embarked on this hallowed action!"

"Nilpaurion Felagund!"

The party was hushed in reverent awe.

"But...that leaves us with a tie," noted a sheepish voice.

"Oh...I guess I can't do that, then."

Everyone retired to bed.

~~~~~~~~~~

It is now NIGHT 2. Those with NIGHTly business may now conduct it.

The Ordos sleep now.

Boots DAY Two

~~~~~Our Tale~~~~~

The NIGHT was quiet.

Mostly.

Except that as dawn began creeping over the horizon there was a strange buzz.

It went on and on growing louder and LOUDER and LOUDER!!!!!!

The guests huddled in their rooms, terrified.

bzzzzzzzzZZZZZZZZZZZZZ BANG *fizzle* POP

Absolute silence.

As the sun rose over the horizon everyone slipped out of their rooms into the canyon.

They stood staring at each other around the guillotine.

All except for one.

Blood poured out from under the door of the chamber of Morsul the Dark.

Turns out Kuru was right.

What to do now?

I think an excellent place to start is to focus on how Kuru was right.

~~~~~~

DAY Two has begun. Morsul the Dark was killed in the NIGHT.

You may all post.

Erm...you're welcome. I guess? Just so we're clear, I didn't do it for you.
