The Ministry is watching you.
Oh, it’s nothing so obvious as a sneakoscope on every corner. You’d never think twice about popping in for a bit of shopping in Diagon Alley, and now that everything is rebuilt, it’s as if nothing has changed. Flourish and Blott’s, Madame Malkins… everything is as it should be, yet the streets are far more quiet than they used to be. People go about their business more briskly than they used to do, and if you talk too long to the wrong sort, or linger too long over your butter beer at the Leaky, you might feel an eerie prickling at the nape of your neck. Don’t bother turning around, though. Nothing will be there.
Some wizards blame it on the war, of course. It’s been 9 years since the Battle of Hogwarts, and it could be argued that now there are simply fewer witches and wizards to make noise, but others say it’s because of the new Minister of Magic. He has a way about him that sets one’s teeth on edge.
But perhaps it isn’t the Minister himself, maybe it’s just a sign of the changing times… Either way, a word of advice: Watch what you say, and who you say it to. People are disappearing, rumours are swift and vicious and you can’t trust the Daily Prophet to report on any of it, because nothing insidious or illegal seems to be happening.
It’s true that Voldemort is dead, and nobody wants another Wizarding War… But the Dark Lord cast a tremendously long shadow.
Sometimes Evil is violent and easy to spot… other times it’s much more cunning. The time to choose sides again may be coming soon.
