SOMETHING IS AMISS AT THE ISLE OF DREAR!!!!
THE RUMOURS OF DRACO'S AND MY RELOCATION ARE ONE-HUNDRED PERCENT TRUE!!!! MY SOLICITOR BROUGHT THE FINAL BATCH OF PAPERWORK TO ME THIS THURSDAY PAST, AND THE BALANCE OF THE FUNDS REMAINING IN REGARDS TO MY BUY-OUT OF THE BROWN FAMILY'S COMPLETELY INVALID AND RIDICULOUS CLAIM INTEREST IN THE ISLE OF DREAR HAVE BEEN TRANSFERRED TO A TRUST IN THEIR NAME!!!! THE PARKINSON FAMILY CLAIMS SOLE OWNERSHIP OF THE ISLE OF DREAR NOW, INCLUDING ANY AND ALL QUINTAPEDS THAT MAY RESIDE HERE!!!!
DRACO SUGGESTED WE PITCH HIS TENT IN THE HIGHEST BRANCHES OF THE LARGEST, TALLEST TREE THAT WE COULD FIND, WHICH I FOUND TO BE A REMARKABLY CLEVER SUGGESTION, FOR QUINTAPEDS, AS ANY LEARNED PERSON WOULD KNOW, PREFER TO EAT HUMANS RATHER THAN CHAT TO THEM OR PARTAKE IN FETCHING COSTUMES ON BEHALF OF YOUNG FEMALE WITCHES FOR A PENCHANT FOR HIGH FASHION!!!! AFTER OUR SECOND NIGHT IN SAID TREE I REALISED SOMETHING WAS QUITE WRONG WITH IT, FOR I HAVE MET THIS TREE BEFORE -- AT HOGWARTS, MIND -- AND I AM FAMILIAR WITH ITS NEFARIOUS, STALKING WAY!!!!
IT IS A WHOMPING WILLOW THAT DOES NOT WHOMP!!!!
THE ISLE OF DREAR, I SUDDENLY REALISED, IS A RATHER ODD PLACE. AT FIRST GLANCE ALL SEEMS NORMAL AND WELL, BUT THEN YOU REALISE THAT SOMETHING IS NOT QUITE RIGHT!!!! ORIGINALLY, I THOUGHT THIS WAS DUE TO DRACO HAVING OVER-SCRUBBED HIS CAULDRON BOTTOMS IN WORRY WHILST I WAS OUT AND ABOUT DURING THE GREAT KERFUFFLE OF THE WEEKS PAST, AND PERHAPS BREWING DREAMLESS SLEEP THAT WAS A BIT PSYCHEDELIC OFF . . . BUT NOW I AM NOT SO SURE!!!! SEE, THE GRASS HERE IS PINK!!!! AND THE TREES HAVE CERULEAN LEAVES, AND THE SKY SEEMS SEA-GREEN!!!! THE WHOMPING WILLOW DOESN'T WHOMP!!!! THERE IS A TOWN OF NIFFLERS AT THE BASE OF OUR TREE, AND THEY ARE CONSTANTLY BUSY; HOWEVER, THEY NIFFLE TRASH AND JUNK AND RAGS AND COMPOST!!!! THERE'S ALSO A FLOCK OF CORNISH PIXIES ABOUT THAT IS THE MOST HELPFUL, POLITE, ORGANISED, AND SUNNY BUNCH I'VE EVER ENCOUNTERED!!!! IN FACT, WE COULD USE THE CORNISH PIXIES IN LIEU OF OUR HOUSE ELVES IF WE WANTED TO, FOR THEY ENJOY TAKING TEA WITH DRACO AND I EVERY AFTERNOON, AND THEY PROVIDE ALL THE BISCUITS AND TRUFFLES AND TAQUITOS WITH NARY A WORD OF COMPLAINT, AND THEY LIKE TO CLEAN UP AFTER TEA IS OVER!!!! THERE IS A KAPPA IN THE STREAM OVER THE KNOLL FROM OUR TREE AND HE LIKES TO COME TO TEA AS WELL, AND OFFERS US THE USE OF HIS HEAD AS A FINGERBOWL -- HE REFUSES ALL OUR OFFERS OF CUCUMBER SLICES, PREFERRING RATHER TO READ ALOUD TO US FROM THE DAILY PROPHET OR TO CROCHET QUIETLY IN THE ROCKING CHAIR BY THE FIREPLACE!!!! THERE'S A MANTICORE HERE, WHO HAS TAKEN TO EATEN FRESH GREENS WITH ARUGULA SHAVINGS AND LEMON JUICE -- INFLUENCED BY DRACO'S IMPECCABLE TASTE, NO DOUBT.
VERY ODD PLACE, THIS ISLE OF DREAR. OH, AND I'VE MADE IT UN-UNPLOTTABLE, BY THE WAY. IT'S MY ISLE, AND I SHALL SET THE RULES!!!!
DRACO, SHALL WE STAY HERE?!?! I THINK WE SHOULD, FOR I'VE THOUGHT OF THE BEST NAME FOR WHAT WE DISCUSSED EARLIER TODAY:
THE ISLE OF DREAR BONNY WEE BOO HAGS!!!!
I THINK I SHOULD LIKE TO STAY HERE!!!! IT IS QUIET AND HAS ROOM FOR PETS AND CREATURES OF ALL SORTS!!!! WE HAVEN'T ACTUALLY SEEN ANY QUINTAPEDS YET, WHICH MAKES IT DIFFICULT TO CHOOSE WHAT KIND OF HOME WE COULD BUILD, BUT I QUITE LIKE THIS TREEHOUSE!!!! IT HAS ALL I NEED: DRACO, TEA, DRACO, A FEATHER DUVET, BOOKS, DRACO, A VIEW, CREATURES, COSTUMES, COLOURS, A FLOO HUB, AND DRACO!!!! PERHAPS I SHALL EARN THE TITLE OF 'METHUSELAH' PROPERLY HERE!!!!
