Oh no! Poor Canada! So did the trio recognize them too or were they scared of the snatchers? Er, I assume they were snatchers. Or something. They leave the scalps there? Somehow I don't think that England entirely understands the purpose of scalping someone.

“Maybe he’s a vampire,” said Ollivander, “but either way, you shouldn’t open the bag.
“Are you a vampire?” asked Luna.
“Wh-what?”
“It’s all right if you are, it’s nothing to be ashamed of,” said Luna. “It’s not so bad being a vampire as it used to be. There are a lot of opportunities for vampires now.”
“I’m not a vampire, I’m a Canada,” said Canada.
“He must be one of that gang that likes to kill those Snatchers,” said Ollivander, “They say they call each other from what countries they come from. So, they must have finally caught one… don’t open the bag, Luna. He’s probably dangerous.”
It was too late, Luna was already untying the straps at the top. “A Canada, you say? How curious. Like the country?”
“Luna!”
She rolled the top of the bag down as soon as the knot was undone, staring at the bruised face and split lip that greeted her from inside the bag.
“A Canada,” said Luna.
“Umm, yes,” said Canada. If possible, her eyes widened even more in delight.
“Oh, Mr. Ollivander, we’re sharing a dungeon with a Canada“A Canada?”

Ah-HA! I was wondering where he got off to!
Completely unrelated, but I wanted to share: Being unable to remember what Ollivander's voice sounded like, I'm imagining him as Wilfred Mott from Doctor Who.

Oh my goodness. Poor what's-his-face, indeed.
Luna is both the best and worst possible HP character to have come across a very naked, not-quite-dead Canada. Nice way of conveying her here, my dear.

A bit of a slower chapter. ---
Legilimency, though turned into a dirty word between the Dark Lord’s regimes, had not always been so. There had been a time, long ago, when people actually trusted each other with each other’s secrets, and used it in the healing process rather liberally. These days, however, the art was strictly controlled, and only used in a small number of circumstances, such as attempts to rouse individuals from coma or catatonia, to confirm brain death, to attempt salvage after severe damage from memory charms or the imperius curse, and it could sometimes be approved to soothe extremely distressed patients if all other methods had been tried.
Italy had heard about these policies through listening to what the healers wanted to do with - for, probably, for, because it was not with ill intent - Germany. After the first week or so, Germany’s bluish color had faded, only leaving him pale. Italy thanked God for letting him revive so fast, because otherwise they would have thrown him away like so much refuse, burying him

Another short update. ---
There was something that muggles knew that wizards, apparently, didn’t, and that was that confessions and intelligence obtained under torture were usually inaccurate. It was in human nature to say anything to get the pain to stop. Of course, most muggles who used torture didn’t care. It wasn’t their purpose to procure information, or, if it was, it was only a secondary aim. For the most part, muggles tortured simply because they enjoyed torturing, or, less commonly, it was because the torturee liked to be tortured. Sometimes, turing the sessions, he would think of France and Germany. If either of them were in his place, they would probably be getting off on this. He imagined their moans and cries, only begging for mercy when it stopped.
He honestly hoped they weren’t actually using his information. He couldn’t even imagine how stupid they would be if they had. The nations (the Mudbloods, as the Death Eaters called them), wouldn’t stay in the same place twice, never staying anywhere for longer than a day, so
