The night stretches our nerves thin and we wake to nervous anticipation… but alas, warms sounds from the kitchen, gentle stirring of comrades… the night passed in silence? How fortunate…
Why the nightwatch would not speak out at this point is bewildering to me. Considering what the guardian may know at this point, that with the nightwatches information, a lot could be hashed out very quickly. But perhaps there are reasons between the lines that we cannot see? I’d like to hear from the nightwatch before the guardian. If the nightwatch refuses to come out, so will the guardian… but if the nightwatch comes out I think maybe the guardian should, too.
Otherwise all I can claim is speculation, as all of us, biting blindly at the dirt like worms.
