I'm afraid it's all true. Dennis was murdered sometime last night, it would seem, and that dreadful boy, Moebius Ollivander, became our latest victim of petrification.

There are few clues for any of us to follow: neither boy was physically touched, and we've had nothing but null results with any of the tests any of us knows for determining whether magic has been used on a body. And, of course, MLE can't send anyone to investigate.

There was a message on the wall, again: 'Enemies will be found and fall' it said, I believe. There's been no end of conversation about what this might mean. It was written in blood as with the other attacks, but not the blood of either child. I believe Minerva was going to check with Professor Brutka, and I haven't heard whether he or Dawlish have been able to confirm a source amongst the castle's creatures.

If the pair of you Aurors have any thoughts about what more we could look for or test, I suspect Minerva would be very glad to hear from you.
