We're about to finish up here. Most unfortunately, we were not told until our arrival that the actual sighting took place at least two days ago. Some of the horde were labouring at the edge of the camp when they glimpsed a large man fitting Macnair's description lingering at the edge of the forest. They kept the sighting to themselves until a guard didn't show up for work last night. In their excitement, they let their secret slip out where the other guards could hear. All three men have been soundly questioned.

We swept the forest for most of the day. Found the guard's body. Tortured, looks like - it had Macnair's touch - but death came by Killing Curse.

Walden, Walden...I wonder just what it is that you think you are doing. I don't imagine that you even know, yourself. Always the foolish Gryffindor.

It's still quite puzzling to imagine what he was about two years ago, when he had made a place for himself. Why sacrifice it all for some mad notion?

And whatever was he doing torturing a camp guard? Well, I'm sure you'll sort it.

Too bad there's little point your returning here this evening. Hydra looked just lovely.
