Order only: Marvolo's warning

[alt_mcgonagall]

Marvolo came to see me this morning with an astonishing variety of paranoid accusations against Macnair. It remains unclear to me how much he truly knows; however, I could glean the definite insinuation that Macnair was a threat to the object concealed here.

I could also glean that Marvolo seemed genuinely concerned that Macnair intended to do me a mischief, though why I cannot fathom.

This situation is like a tangle with no ends. Marvolo had no good and simple story; Macnair's motivations, if truly he is a villain, are incomprehensible, and where is the Lord Protectir in this? I hardly know. But I must do something to ensure the safety of our object.

I'm sure I don't know why you and Sirius are both always so ready to dismiss people's concerns about Macnair when he's so clearly a nasty piece of work and a threat to us all.

I do understand that your hands are tied in dealing with him. I suppose I hoped that was the reason you've ignored the information I've brought you about the man and his dealings. But if you'll heed a warning now, I suppose I shall swallow the sting of knowing it was a child you listened to rather than this fussy old bird, your friend.
