Headmistress McGonagall,
While I understand the purpose of the location of the upcoming memorial, I wanted to write to you tobegaskbeg you and whoever else is planning the memorial to reconsider hosting it at the castle. I know I'm not alone in feeling like it's impossible to consider going back there right now and I know you understand the reasons why.
I feel like I need to be there for the friends we lost and to honor the lives that were sacrificed for a better world. Right now, I can't even close my eyes without various scenes from the battle replaying in my head and that's even without standing in the same place where it happened. Please don't make us choose whether our need to honor their memories or our grief and trauma wins this round--we've all lost enough already.
Ultimately, I know I'm only one person requesting a change in plans that affect more than just me, but I had to ask.
All my best,
Neville F. Longbottom
