Private Message to Bella and Barty

Sister, dear, I am sure you are quite occupied with the implications of resurrecting Barty, so I'll be brief.

The body. I'll lay odds it's Norah. Barty, do you think that could be the case? She was so hysterical that day, about your safety. Oh, I don't suppose you've read my entry, not with all this going on.

It's just a thought. I'm sure you've already considered it. But if it's correct - Barty, I'm so sorry, if I'm right.

Agreed. (No, haven't read back, but not necessary on this matter.)

Only question is how she managed it. Aside from incompetently.

Transfiguration has been assuredly ruled out, as there are no trace flaws whatsoever.

There is no way to determine if the body is Norah, as it's a match to Barty in every way. The coroner is re-running the toxicology spells to see if there's a positive for polyjuice, which I suspect there will be.

In which case I suppose we shall have to make scans for polyjuice a matter of course for all autopsies now, to avoid such embarrassments in the future.
