The article in the Londonarium was a piece of sensationalist trash. The death of my father was awful enough without the details being exploited for a cheap bit of sentiment and to make a few galleons. There were details that I didn’t even know, because the people that cared about me thought they would be too horrible for me to hear. Well, I know about them now, and so does everyone else too. It’s not right that a daughter should read about her father’s last moments for the very first time in a magazine. It’s not right that someone should exploit his last moments. He doesn’t deserve that. I hope that Ganymede Bobolis realises just how very angry I am. He ought to be ashamed.

When I got the key to my family vault, one of the things in it was my father’s ring. I put it on a gold chain and I’ve been wearing it ever since, because I thought it would be nice to have a remembrance of him close by, and to honour him. He was a hero who sacrificed his life so that I would have a better future. I am proud to be his daughter, and I hope that he would be proud of me too.

Longbottom's mother fought against my father. She wasn't the one that killed him, but she was there, and is a blood traitor that deserves whatever she has coming to her. But I want to make this very clear -- I don’t blame Longbottom for the actions of his parents. I’m not a hero because of my father. Longbottom's not a blood traitor because of his parents. We can both look at what our parents have done and learn from it about the sorts of people we want to be. I believe that he deserves a chance, and that my father fought for the right of all witches and wizards to have a better life, including him. And that’s honestly all I’m going to say on the matter.

Don't worry about it, Bill. I'm sure now that we're newsworthy again, we've got to expect this sort of thing cropping up.

Just let us know what you find out.
