Maebh,

I've a favour to ask, if you would.

I don't wish to go into details that you may find painful but I fear that a mutual friend has suffered a blow and requires a place to recover, in the way that is best for him. Would you consider arranging for him to spend a few days with only Kit to keep him company? I'm sure he'd be in capable hands and you could avoid renewing your acquaintance.

I think you know I would not ask if I did not judge it necessary. Or if it's impossible at present, perhaps you could tell me of another establishment you could recommend besides your own? I thought Snowdonia mostly because he's already quite familiar with your lodge and of course, the territory on the preserve. If you agree to offer him the free run of the place, then I suggest that an anonymous owl to him might serve as the best invitation.

I'm sure he'll see the subject of this message and think the worst. If he asks me, which I doubt he shall, I intend to tell him I contacted you to arrange a hunting party this summer. It's quite true: Lucius has been wanting to return in more temperate weather and summer holidays ought to be the perfect setting for us to bring Draco in between his responsibilities as a counsellor in the YPL.

Meanwhile, though, I hope you will do this - for the sake of his recent difficulty. Or for the sake of what might have been, if no other reason.

I hope I shall see you at the DoP induction in July, if not before? And do, please, let me know about available weekends. I shall have to check against all our calendars, of course, but I hope we might find something that would work.

Yours in friendship,

Narcissa C.B. Malfoy

How do you feel?

It looked as if Gaheris did you a world of good. You certainly seemed much more yourself than when I last saw you. Or was that entirely due to your thespian expertise?

Bella said this evening that you're to help on her ongoing investigation. Much as I wish her a successful conclusion, please tell me that you'll take some time for yourself before you dive in to assist her.

I ... still can't quite condone killing him, dear, but I do understand how betrayed you must have felt. I rather think he must have been in a world of misery, himself. To know that he'd driven your poor mother away, and to know that he was the root cause of her death as well? From a certain light it's almost as if you did him a favour. One I'm not sure he deserved but - well. I suppose I can see both their perspectives. And yours. It's unspeakably sad, from all angles. At least no one will know. You shan't have Piers Sanditon knocking on your door asking to write an opera on the subject.

At least now, if he did, I am a little more confident he might be able to walk away from the encounter.

Oh, but there is one other thing: I am very proud of you, despite the events of this past week. Do remember that.

Are you all right?

It's most unlike you to send a private message to your father. And twice in quick succession ....

Is -

Can I

Do you need ... help of some kind?
