EPILOG’s explanation of Wolf’s
decision:
- Attacking a child is extremely wicked.
- Trying to eat a living creature involves attacking it, and such
an attack is conspicuous and likely to be noticed by nearby people.
- Doing something extremely wicked is likely to bring severe
punishment, if noticed by anyone.
- So, if the wolf tries to eat LRRH, the nearby woodcutters may notice it, and he
is likely to be severely punished for it.
