052; 10 April 1980.

[Warded to the Inner Circle]
This must not be allowed to stand.


[Warded to Death Eaters, minus Lestranges]
Caracatus Lestrange has murdered by the DMLE. Isidore Mulciber is informing the family of the loss. This is a great loss and you may rest assured that it will not be allowed to stand and that we will have retribution.

In the meantime, please honour his memory by maintaining your trust in the Dark Lord and waiting for instructions along those lines.


[Warded to Lucia]
Caracatus Lestrange was murdered this evening. I will be incredibly busy throughout this weekend, and will need the girls kept out of my way. Will you please take care of this, and sending our proper condolences to the family as soon as the information has become public?

He was a stronger man than I was. Perhaps even more firm in his beliefs than I am, and the cause will feel his loss. I will feel his loss. I feel as if any eloquence has left my quill at this moment: Everything is harsh edges and words.

This should not have happened.

046; 9 March 1980.

[Warded to the Inner Circle]
A few days ago I set Lucius on the task of completing some of the work that he and Augustus have begun. He reported back to me today, and during tonight's training session brought forward all of the information that he has been able to gather. There is enough that I believe we could begin taking further actions.

We have the address of Emily Prewett's parents. They live in a semi-detatched home, so it would need to be done with care, but I am wondering if they might not have further information regarding their daughter that they could give to us.

If we are in agreement, I believe we should move through the rest of these aurors as swiftly as possible. They have too long continued to live with the notion that their actions and defiance against the Dark Lord go unnoticed.

Tristan Rosier.

Laelia Rosier.

It has not a half-bad sound to it. I should prefer it if he were one of the Dark Lord's devoted servants, but there is perhaps yet time for that. And even without it, the name and the blood alone speak highly of him. I should speak with Julian.


Prisca has determined that she needs a second pony because she would like to have 'baby ponies'. Outside of being a bit amused that she has suddenly developed a desire to become a breeder of fine ponies, I'm not quite certain what to make of this. Generally I like to indulge my daughter's intellectual curiosities when appropriate to do so, and there is far worse to be interested in than a study of fine animals. Which, I believe in the course of this paragraph I have determined the next course of action. I do not suppose that anyone knows of any horse shows where she could introduced to the concept in a more mature context than ponies?
