Lawks a Lordy! Looks like we've got ourselves an outbreak of lycanthrope in this here village. I heard of a similar thing happening in another village over yonder when I was harvesting mushrooms in the area. They say that the villagers there prevailed, though many died before the fiends were vanquished, both through the creatures' night-time activities and through the lynching of poor innocent villagers.
Seems it may be time for me to move on, being as I'm itinerant an' all. Then again, this village has treated me kindly, so I feel duty bound to stay and help in this time of need. That and the fact that there are still mushrooms in these parts to be harvested.
Let all speak! Mayhaps the beasts will drop their guard and we will be able to tell who is foul and who is fair.
Who am I kidding? We are just going to have to hang whoever seems the most suspicious and keep our fingers crossed.
Personally, I have four main suspects:
Kath
Shelob
Menaltarmacil and
Bergil
Kath's garden was clearly visited by this Werebear. Could it have come from her house? And the tracks led to
Shelob's house. Is that because that is where it lives?
Meneltarmacil seems far too well-acquainted with beasts of all kinds. As for
Bergil, he's on my list because the shelves that he put up for me keep falling down.
Mark my words. It's those four that we should be keeping our eyes on.
