alt_dracoThere's something I need to make clear.
I know that the Order did everything that they could to help keep my parents safe. It didn't really work, but that's not anyone in the Order's fault. The Protectorate is an altogether unpredictable place, and the Lord Protector even more so. Even if my father's travel plans to France hadn't been discovered, there's no telling what the Lord Protector would have done. There is no action, no plan, that is secure and foolproof.
From here on out, I don't expect, or want, anyone to make any moves to protect my parents further.
They made their choice to follow a megalomaniac long ago, and must live with the consequences of that choice.
Thank you to those of you who put your wand on the line to help them out in the first place. I promise it wasn't for nothing, even if it feels like it was.
Oh - and sorry I wrecked the best broom at Moddey. I pushed it beyond its capabilities, I'm afraid.

Hydra's role is the sympathetic ear, and that way, she can keep the other ear on their thoughts.
You have to admit I would have been brilliant at this.
Oh, well. I'll find something new to be brilliant at.

If we ever get any other leads on where they are, that is.
