My my, the new year has quite honestly crept up me. Why, it seems only yesterday I'd come to be an educator though I cannot say I find this task anymore enjoyable now than when I'd first began. Time has flown by so very rapidly I nearly had forgotten to send out presents. My apologies. To those lucky few for whom I'd made a purchase of sorts, I have sent out your gifts. It is my sincerest hope that you enjoy them.

It appears that everything has settled down considerably within the ministry as well as the school after the attack the week prior yet, it is certain tensions are running high. While having only acquired a minimal quantity of information via Peony, muggleborns distrusting pureblooded individuals who'd once been considered comrades is a likely occurrence. One cannot be certain who is friend and who is foe, I suppose. Blood is merely a fluid consisting of plasma, blood cells, and platelets that of which the heart circulates through the vertebrate vascular system, carrying oxygen and nutrients to and waste materials away from all body tissues. Purity of blood is a concept beyond comprehension. All creatures possess it, all creatures bleed it, all creatures cease to live without it.

Doubtlessly, I am still considered among those suspected of having ties with the Death Eaters. I do suppose having gained the title of 'necromancer' is rather troublesome during times like this. Sending one of those underlings to question me was irritating, if not virtually pointless.  Information was, naturally, excluded and altered so that, while it would be considered the truth, it would be the minimum amount of such truth. The ministry should be, at the very least, somewhat understanding of the fact my loyalty lies with Peony, not the Ministry as an entirety.  Once that debriefing concluded, I'd uncovered Peony had let himself into my room effectively creating a mess, as is expected when he brought that filthy beast with him to 'have Cute Jade cheer up the Uncute Jade'.  I had issued my formal report and he'd left nearly two times faster than that earlier, unnecessary interrogation.

That attack was a situation I should've handled differently. Civilian casualties, while not at all surprising given the circumstances, were avoidable. My error was making Anise a priority. While a student, she should not have been my main focus neither should I have revealed to her what I had. Such things are trivialities better left in the past though, I suppose, it shall make her less appealing to target than those who are muggleborn. Any inquiries she directs at me shall be replied to truthfully. I shall simply make certain the truth be molded to fit my needs. While I am not adverse to informing her about Gelda, her father is a secret that shall be kept as such. Disturbing her current happiness with that knowledge would be cruel. Ignorance is, in this particular circumstance, indeed bliss.
