Sent by Ministry Floo to St Mungo's Hospital and strongly warded to be unintelligible to anyone other than the intended recipient:

Dear Yvon,

You're not going to like this at all, but I have to convey two separate sets of instructions. I want you to go home as soon as you read this, assuming both you and Alessio are capable of leaving the hospital. I think you should be on your own land tonight, given that there's a danger to all the sacred royalty in the making and the Weasley curse is active to boot.

Your mother, however, wants you to find a safe place to bunker down in Londinium until she gets word to you, and she says that this order comes from your little brother, who did, admittedly, find a problem in Trevena that Edward is sending Saunders and a couple of friends to deal with.

I don't have enough data to say for sure which course of action is the best (if I could get only one piece of information out of Gloriana, it'd be an accurate birth time for you--we already know about Snape), but whichever one you take, stay in after dark. And I'm aware that you'll probably do what your mother says, because she's scarier than I am. But remember, I've got Edward.

Love,
Lavinia

Sealed against tampering:

My dear Madam Lestrange:

It is by the grace of God and by virtue of the fact that you have never before been explicitly ordered to keep yourself out of your estranged husband's properties that you will not tonight be occupying quarters on Azkaban Island.

By order of the War Bureau, you are forbidden to set foot in the Bois des Malfées, Trevena village or any property belonging to the Malfoy family, explicitly including the Manor at Tintagel, the Wiltshire House, and their residence at Widdershins Court in Londinium.

You are also not to set foot in the Forbidden Forest or any lands belonging to the Farrylls or Macmillans. In fact, for the duration of this conflict I order and abjure you to keep yourself within the borders of wizarding settlements with a population of not less than 10000 human souls. I don't want you in any forests or near any standing stones. You have no idea how to behave yourself therein, and while it would probably be advantageous to the security of the realm if you convinced some fey creature to make an end of you through some mis-step, chances are you will simply make a dog's dinner out of some situation that I or your estranged husband, Lady Malfoy, will have to mop up. As you have done today.

If I had war powers to grant a legal divorce, I would divorce you from Dracaena even before I set Priscilla free, for while Priscilla is innocent and deserves to conduct her life in peace without interference from me or my mistress, your marriage to Dracaena makes you a positive menace to the country itself.

I hope this letter finds you in good health.

Your obd't servant,
Kyteler Dux Bellorum
