Order Only

[alt_draco]

I saw my father tonight. To make him feel comfortable about opening up to me, I've had to reveal more about the Order than some of you may prefer. Hydra, Ron, Justin - he knows you three are with us, and that you're each training with your very own Death Eater. I'm sorry I had to do that to you lot without your permission, but I do think it held some weight with him, if that matters.

I also told him about our search for the Horcruxes: which ones we've found, and which ones we've destroyed.

In turn, he suggested that Voldemort would have chosen other artefacts linked to the Hogwarts' founders. He also said he was certain there would be eight of them, for the ouroboros.

And he was also certain that one of them would be stashed in Bellatrix's Gringott's vault. Apparently Voldemort gave her something immensely important to protect, some years ago, and that's where she hid it.

So, he's helping us for now. Or helping me, rather. I think that's how he'd prefer to see it.

Eight again? Like the octobori? That almost seems too convenient.

[alt_draco]

Hermione felt similarly, but I don't know. I think that's one of his biggest weaknesses. He can't do anything and not etch all kinds of symbolism all over it. Nothing plain and ordinary for he who wanted to be known as Lord Voldemort at one point in his life.

I see what you mean.

What a shame he didn't just go into the arts, like everyone else with a flair for drama and a thirst for attention.

[alt_draco]

He did go into the arts (and the Arts), only all of Britain's his stage. Just think about the grisly set piece he created today.

[alt_daphne]

Right.

Draco, that footage... well, when they've made the propaganda pamphlet or whatever, will you send me one, please?

[alt_draco]

Sure. We'll make certain everyone sees it, somehow.

[alt_alice]

However he sees it, it's something we will certainly make use of.

Thank you.

And Draco, you made a calculation, and it paid off. Nicely done.
