Issue Two And there it is, folks. Are we getting sick of the same speech trying to reassure us all that everything will be sunshine and rainbows despite the fact people are being sent to St. Mungo's or just plain missing? Yes, it's true. It seems that the stellar Ministry of Magic that we put so much faith in to not only keep us informed but protect us from such evils has felt it necessary not to actually advertise the fact that the attack that happened on their own grounds earlier this morning wasn't nearly as filled with the sunshine and rainbows as the Minister is trying to paint. While there were no deaths reported just yet, there are a multitude of Ministry workers who were injured and several hospitalized - Jill Brandt, Amos Diggory, John Lupin, and Sheila Small, in particular, who are projected to be free to leave the hospital tomorrow morning. However, there is still the matter of Sorrell Meadowes, who seems to have gone missing. Several members of the Ministry who were there to witness the hexes being shot off by the handful of masked people claim that near the end of the debacle she was stunned and then one of the masked figures Apparated away with her. This mystery writer's heart goes out for the friends and family of Sorrell and sincerely hopes that the Ministry will live up to their claims of doing everything they can in such situations to make them right. Meanwhile, it seems that the Daily Prophet forgot to mention the floating and threatening bit of wandwork that was not only above the Ministry headquarters but inside the Atrium as well. While they have mentioned said smokey figure in previous articles, a minor bit of amnesia must have struck while writing the most recent and disgustingly short bit of news for you, the citizens, to keep up with the wizarding world in Britain. While we were unfortunately able to get a proper photograph to share with you just what to look out for, it can only be expected that unless the Ministry sees to change things on their end that they will be popping up in the near future as well. I leave you, then, with a few lingering questions to ponder until next time. Why is the Ministry keeping out details like this? What is this disturbing mark that seems to be left behind whenever one of these so-called unrelated attacks occur? And, most importantly, what will you be willing to do to stop this? |
