A RECONCILLIATION WITH THE CROWN
MINISTRY TO RENEW TIES WITH HER MAJESTY |
One decade since the magical community’s firm segregation from the muggle world, a surprising turn of events: the Ministry of Magic has announced that exile is to end! From the Minister of Magic: (For Immediate Release) To the magical community, For the better part of a year, it has been my private endeavour to rebuild bridges between my office, the muggle Prime Minister, and Her Majesty Queen Victoria, for only when Britain is unified, both magic and muggle, can we truly be at our best. I am very pleased indeed to announce that such talks have, in fact, been successful, and we are to return to Her Majesty’s bosom once more. This will, I think, change little in the day-to-day lives of most readers, but removes from our hearts any fears of muggle threat and retribution. _____________________________________________________________ |
It will at last be business as usual once more as we put these uncertain times behind us once more. In celebration both of this and of Her Majesty’s Golden Jubilee, no less than the queen herself will be visiting Hogsmeade on the ninth of June, the wards on our proud village dropped—temporarily—for the first time since its founding. More news on the festivities will come as the date draws nearer. Yours, Balthazar Urquart Minister of Magic This is startling news indeed. Sources on the inside suggest a carnival and ball are likely to greet Her Majesty—could the new batch of debutantes be the first acknowledged by the queen in a generation? The Daily Prophet’s Fidelia Spiller will be following the matter very closely indeed. AUTHOR: OLLA MIRAGE |
