ic notes and random gab

As I have been here several weeks now, I suppose it's time I find a permanent place to call home. The Reagan Inn has been very hospitable, but one can't live in a hotel forever. However, I am still acclimating to life here in Preya, and find I could use some assistance in procuring an appropriate property.

I heard that there's a holiday fashion trend called ugly sweaters? Why would anyone wish to dress in one of those? When I think of the holiday, I think elegant and cozy. Not itchy and...ugly.

How did it take me so long to discover the Star? The services there are wonderful for Muggles.

Well the technology here is certainly more advanced. Still, I've become so accustomed to journals that it's weird to be typing on a computer.

So, how is it I get an invitation from the future for a destination getaway? I didn't think time monitoring was allowed.

For those of you who do not know me, my name is Cassiopeia Black, and before I left for Preya, it was 1940. I do apologise for the somewhat...unorthodox means of communication, but I have an important question for anyone willing to answer.

I understand that in my future there is a strong possibility that some awful person is going to start a conflict worse even than that we face in my time. I do not agree with war. I do not believe it is how civilised people settle their differences, and I would like to think that anyone who had seen the state of London at home would agree with me.

I would like to know the identity of this individual, and any information that would enable me to stop him before he can tear apart what remains of our society, should I return home someday.

Due to previous unpleasantness, I would also like to note that anyone using this message to air their perceived grievances against pureblood witches and wizards or our culture will be summarily ignored. I believe in the importance of our traditions, and international peace is one of them. If you do not wish to assist or advise me, you need not reply.

What is a Turkey Trot, and why should I want to join it?
