The wider world

I feel as though I have been mewed up in Hogwarts for the longest time, although of course I have been to New London. I believe the problem is a lack of congenial company. I have not paid court to Our Lord in far too long, and I have not seen my old friends in a more casual way for longer.

Perhaps I should plan a fete. I have never been good at parties, however. Perhaps, Lucius, you might be willing to take tea with me when you are at Hogwarts?

Thursday next is shaping up to be quite a long day at Hogwarts for me. I had planned to dine with Tosha. But naturally, if you wish private conference, should be happy to oblige.

Private Message to Minerva McGonagall

In fact, it might be all to the good were we to confer prior to the meeting proper.

Have instructed Weasley to arrange individual appointments with the other Governors. Though there is precious little time. Dolores is up to something, I fear.

Any clue as to what her aims are?

Would it?

I have no strong sense of her specific aims, apart from power at all costs, although I would put little past her. Tosha is attempting to penetrate her shell—I have little hope of out-slithering a Snake.

I cannot stand that woman (as well you know) and I believe my distaste has meant that I ignored her for far too long. I hope I can count on you to support me against her, should it become necessary at the meeting? I do not think that whatever she is up to can be good.

I would be quite honored if Minerva were to join us.

Thank you, Tosha.
