Order Only: Field Tests

Arthur, Bill, I've just noticed that my brother set off a bit of a tiff between that prig Malfoy and his shrew. Seems to me he knows full well purebloods can get the Scourge at any moment - and from what I could conclude, he's worried. Have you seen the exchange I mean? Do you know anything about Rookwood's tests? Is it possible he thinks he has a cure?

I hate to say it but if anyone can at least stop the disease spreading, it's a good thing - no matter who comes up with the solution. As long as it doesn't require them to bleed Muggles dry or anything else similarly gruesome, that is.

And I don't even want to venture a guess as to what Reggie is doing for that murdering bastard. Pilfering empty houses for trophies, no doubt. What a madman!

Hermione, I hope you're feeling all right today. Believe me, the only reason I haven't composed a Grim Truth in outrage over what happened to you is that I know you don't want any more attention over the matter, anymore than we want to invite more trouble for you. Just remember, Remus is right: if ever you want to talk to any of us, we're here. I expect you'd rather discuss it with Professor McGonagall or Madam Pomfrey, or Mrs Weasley, but don't forget that you've a whole legion of honourary uncles who'd be more than happy to bash in a few heads in your defence.

Well, there is a Hephaestus Rookwood at St Mungo's, yeah. But he's in administration, not any kind of medical research. Augustus Rookwood, on the other hand, the Unspeakable?


No idea why he's involved.
