Private message to Lucius and Rodolphus

[alt_bellatrix]

I gave word that you both be notified: the body has been positively identified by a trusted source. Presumably you know as much by now. Cause of death has been verified as Killing Curse.

Now we must think carefully of how to make the unhappy announcement to Raz and Narcissa - before other tongues get there first.

Have Bartemius and Norah been informed? Suppose Crouch will want his son's wand back.

I have been ... hesitant ... to break the news to Narcissa. She must be told, of course, but

After the distress she has already suffered over the past months, she shall surely react poorly.

Have not heard reply from Broome; have you seen Our Lord on this matter?

What think you of the lack of an assembly to discuss the threat Barty's murder represents?
