[he's still dodging the subject, and Magilou wonders how long he can get away with it before Futaba notices. also plz, she isn't about to bring up the Hangmen, either. but she can talk more about the Wickie and the Waylayer!]
The Wickies could "check" people to see if they had a role or not too, but their primary purpose was eliminating the Sirens and guiding us all home.
In addition to the Nymph, there was the Waylayer, who-- well.
[okay backing up a bit]
Everyone on the island had a partner, you know? If you died, your partner died, and vice versa. The Waylayer could "break" one partnership per week, so if one member of that partnership died, the other half would be spared.
The poor sap in that role never really managed to put that ability to good use, though.
[poor Prussia. breaking partnerships each week, but only the ones consisting of people who weren't being targeted]
