The people were empowered to "assemble with javelins, halberds, pikes, arquebuses and clubs, to hunt and pursue the said were-wolf in all places where they could find it, and to take, burn, and kill it, without incurring any fine or other penalty." The hunt seems to have been successful, if we may judge from the fact that the same tribunal in the following year condemned to be burned a man named Giles Garnier, who ran on all fours in the forest and fields and devoured little children, "even on Friday." The poor lycanthrope, it appears, had as slight respect for ecclesiastical feasts as the French pig, which was not restrained by any feeling of piety from eating infants on a fast day.

I would like to again apologise for the spate of "-ley" names. Please let me be absolved of negative alignment.

...or Fugley, 'tis a favourite of mineMade by Dwarfs. The Rule here is that the Mine is either long deserted or at most is inhabited by a few survivors who will make confused claims to have been driven out/decimated by humans/ other Dwarfs/Minions of the Dark Lord. Inhabited or not, this Mine will be very complex, with many levels of galleries, beautifully carved and engineered. What was being mined here is not always evident, but at least some of the time it will appear to have been Jewels, since it is customary to find unwanted emeralds, etc., still embedded in the rock of the walls. Metal will also be present, but only when made up into armor and weapons (_wondrous_).

Fudgeley? Is that some candy brand? Hm. I wonder if people would buy chocolate-covered Dudleys. Maybe we should start a company.

You feel momentarily mocked. Hey! I resent the abuse of my name, oh second (fake) incarnation! I do not use such words! Erm, is "Scudley" much better? Nah, never mind.
