He is dead, and with him, my dreams of peace. Is it possible that he could have been so easily defeated, he who was more powerful than I was, rivalled only by Dumbledore? I have many questions, and I fear the answers. My acquaintances must be informed and my vassals protected. Barty can be beaten now, with no excuse for his excesses, and ( Read more... )

So, the Dark Lord has discovered the identity of the parents of the child he must kill. Alice Longbottom is one of them. It is lucky that I no longer care for her; even Isabel means more to me, and she can mean nothing when she is allied to the Mudblood Obliviator.

Thus, the Ministry will continue to hunt them into oblivion. Fudge seems to be settling in well (more's the ( Read more... )

Hmm, Shawn Lupin is settling in well, as are Jones and Blecher. It is a pity that the latter is virtually incapacitated, though- these former Muggles never take well to Portkeys, even with the magic of the were within their veins. However, St Mungo's is well suited to the scheme. Besides, my faked report on werewolf brains is coming along well- ( Read more... )

I have returned from a particularly messy execution at Azkaban via the Braddock estates, only to find the Ministry almost silent. I do ken the fact that it's a Sunday, and even we are loath to break the Good Laird's Sabbath, but there is a war on. Maybe we can get a wee bit of action around here before mrs_minister checks in ( Read more... )
