Dear Rolf, Greetings from Georgia! The American state, not the country — though I would love to return to the Caucasus soon, they have a fascinating breed of ice boars. Your grandmother and I just left Maryland yesterday, and it was tough to leave Gus (Gus is what I’ve taken to calling the Snallygaster.) He’s is such a kind and curious creature, and the good witches and wizards in the Snallygaster Protection League were very friendly! Your grandmother would be cross with me if I didn’t mention that they were hiring, and I think the position would be a good fit for you. I understand why you want to stay in England, though, and I won’t twist your arm about it. How are you? Your last letter was a little vague, but I did enjoy the photographs from the adoption drive. We’ve been doing our best to keep up with the news — the Prophet hasn’t published anything substantial in ages, but the Quibbler has been doing good work lately. The MACUSA has condemned what’s going on over there, but they seem reluctant to get involved. It’s been decades, but it seems as if the scars from Grindelwald’s war are still fresh. I understand being afraid, but inaction seems rather cowardly when Muggles are being slaughtered and Muggleborns have been rounded up and sent to Azkaban. Did they really cut a deal with the likes of Fenrir Greyback? I can’t wrap my mind around it. To end this letter on a positive note, I’ve enclosed several photographs of Gus — he let me take a “selfie” with him! I’d be happy to introduce you to him if you ever make it out this way. Take care and be safe. Your grandmother sends her love. - Grandad PS. Give Silvanus my best! |
