Owl to the Ministry
Dear Glenda,
It's been a long time! How have you been? I hope this owl (and the enclosed parcel of sweets) finds you well. Thank you so much for that wonderful Valentine's day gift. You know I just adore the color red.
I am, unfortunately, in need of a small favor. It seems someone I am very fond of was struck by a... love bug, shall we say? Though, it was against his will and he is now married to a horrid, demanding woman. They've not consummated the marriage and she (one Miss Lana Lang) does not seem too keen on giving him up so easily. I realize that it might be slightly against the rules, but if anyone knows how to help this unfortunate young man, it would be you.
After all, that's why I contacted you personally instead of going through hoops. I would appreciate any help with this matter.
Your favorite teacher,
Sluggy
Enclosed Also: A note from the young man in need.
Dear Miss Glenda, is it?
My name is Tom Marvolo Riddle. I am in hell. The marriage was never consummated and I'd like to get an annulment as soon as possible. As you can see, Professor Horace Slughorn is bearing witness to this fact and for the love of GOD, can you HURRY?! and is prepared to aid me in whatever needs to be done. She's out there! Thank you very much for your support and time.
Sincerely,
T.M.Riddle
