OWL: To Severus and Oliver
Date: 25th March 2006 Characters: Anthony Goldstein, Severus Snape, Oliver Wood Location: Skies Private/Public: Private Rating: PG Warnings: Probably language Summary: Anthony owls two people who could probably help him find a cure for the virus.
Anthony's mind was racing from talking with several Healers on the staff. The initial diagnosis of Dragon Pox hadn't been far off after all. The fact that it had been magically altered had the signature of a certain Death Eater all over it. It wasn't lost on any of them that most of those affected had been half-blood or Muggleborn.
Now they had to find a way to make a cure. Anthony had idea he wanted to try, but he knew they could not do it alone. Though some of them were good at potions, they needed someone else there to assist, someone with a very extensive knowledge of potions. It was far too important and possibly complicated, and too many things could go wrong. As they discussed things, two names came up - both of whom had been informed of the virus, and both with a great knowledge of potions. After a vote, Anthony penned the letters to the men and sent them off. Now, all they could do was wait.
Professor Snape,
My colleagues and I have been informed that you know that status of the epidemic. Though I will refrain from voicing my suspicions on who did this, the fact is is magically altered means it was deliberately spread.
We have an idea for the basis of finding a cure. For some reason, I myself have been totally immune to this virus. Our thought is to use samples of my blood as a foundation for building a cure for those who have been hit the hardest by this virus. With that in mind, we would like to request your assistance in brewing a potion. While several of us are knowledgeable in potions, a project of this importance should be undertaken and assisted by someone with a great knowledge of the practice.
We are also extending this request to Oliver Wood, who has worked here on potions in the past. We are of the opinion that you or him (or possibly both) could work together with us to hopefully create a cure for this disease.
Sincerely, Healer Anthony Goldstein & the Healers of St Mungos
