With the capture of Verandi Farley and several high-ranking Trossach members, the British wizarding world has finally caught a break. The rate of rogue werewolf attacks have started dropping at a steady rate and, hopefully, things will stay that way. The Ministry is starting to loosen some restrictions, like not arresting werewolves standing on the street for loitering, however there’s still an obvious power imbalance between wizardfolk and werewolves.
The Cotswolds pack are continuing to advocate for the rights of werewolves and petitioning to change the legislation that has been set in motion by the current Minister for Magic, whilst the remaining Trossachs members are trying to stay out of the spotlight and keep a low profile… for now.
Whilst the British wizarding world seems to have calmed down, the same cannot be said for over in Northern Europe where a rebellion of magical creatures has risen. The state of things has gotten so bad that the European Ministry has enacted protocols to protect those under eighteen whilst their adult witches and wizards fight to keep control of their countries.
Students from Durmstrang have been sent to Hogwarts to keep them safe and those not old enough to attend school have been sent to live with relatives or designated British Ministry officials outside of Europe for the time being.
Will the low rates of werewolf attacks in Britain continue? How long will Durmstrang students stay at Hogwarts? Will the creatures usurp the wizardfolk in Northern Europe? Only time will tell.
SEPTEMBER 2019 It's been a very long, eventful summer in the wizarding world. A baby was stolen, several high ranking Trossach members were imprisoned, and werewolf attacks have drastically dropped as a result. What will happen now school has returned?
MAY 2019 An attempt to capture the beta of the Trossachs has been launched. Were the Aurors successful in their mission? Go read more here!
I really... really debated for a long time whether to send this letter or not. I don't want you to read this and think that I'm trying to break you and Wolfgang up because I'm not. I don't want anything to do with him anymore. I just feel like it's really important for you to know what happened between the two of us. I'm remaining anonymous for now but... I really doubt it will stay this way for long.
Last October, Wolfgang and I met in the library. He flirted with me which I'm not used to and we talked about a lot of things during that time. The topic came up about werewolves, and I mentioned knowing Teddy Lupin. He asked me a bit about Teddy and then Remus, Teddy's dad, which wasn't too odd because it seemed really casual and given the way the wizarding world is at the moment... a bit of curiosity wasn't too odd. He asked me out, and I said yes.
Wolfgang and I met up for a date in November and he asked me about Teddy again. This time he brought up Teddy's girlfriend and dad again. He wanted me to introduce him to someone related to the werewolf community so he could get an 'insight' - I'm guessing that he meant he wanted to meet Teddy. It didn't take me too long to figure out that things didn't feel right. When I called him out on it... some harsh words came out - I got called insecure, naive and useless at most things. Maybe those things are true, but he also told me that I needed to change so nobody else can use me and my status for their gain. I feel like nobody should be trying to take advantage of me in the first place, nor should they turn around and throw hurtful words at people when they're called out for their actions. A good person doesn't do that, do they? I don't know why he was still so interested in getting to know Teddy or more about werewolves, but I wanted you to know this happened so you can be wary and watch your back.

Hello,
I've been pondering who you are, and I have a few hunches. Still, I'm not sure what you're hoping to achieve by sending me this. You say you don't want to break us up, but I don't know what other motivations you might have. I didn't think I had any enemies, but maybe I'm wrong.
Know that I'm not going to let someone too much of a coward to tell me their name ruin my happiness.
I'm sorry that your date didn't go so well, but I would get over him if I were you. We may have an open relationship in some aspects, but I'm the one he loves.
I have my thoughts on what might have happened to him with werewolves, but I'm not sure I'd like to talk about such subjects with someone like you. I'd prefer to protect him. All I can say is, I would consider what really makes someone a good person.
I told you my motivations in the last letter. I want you to realise that the person you're dating isn't all that he seems. You deserve to know what happened so you're fully aware of what he is like… if I were dating someone, I'd like to know all the sides they have. I don't know if you know this side. I'm not your enemy and I have zero problems with you.
You're right. I am a coward. But I'll let Wolfgang tell you who I am. I wonder if he'll tell you the truth or not of why he hates me.
I'm over him. I have no interest in someone who deceives other people and strings them along. But I'm not over what he did to me because it does something to you. It makes you doubt everyone's intentions because you think they're after the same thing he was.
I didn't expect you to tell me, don't worry. I hope that nobody around you is strongly tied to werewolves or has anything to do with them. If you're trying to suggest I'm a bad person for sending this letter, then you're wrong. I may be a lot of things but a horrible person isn't one of them.

I question why I keep writing back to you, but I feel as if you should know what's wrong with your letters.
Forgive me if I don't take you at face value about your motivations. Either you're playing very well at being naïve, or you really are. Have you not ever, not once, needed to get information from someone? About something that might matter deeply to you personally? I have. So, it seems, has Wolfgang. It's not a crime.
And thinking that there is anyone in this day and age whose life hasn't been touched by the werewolf issue? Yes, perhaps you are naïve. Now that I have Wolfgang in my life, I can no longer ignore it myself. But again, I won't speak too much about it.
If I need information from anyone, I ask them. I don't lead them on.
Do what you will with what I've told you. I'm not going to keep arguing about what my motivations are because I've said them several times. Believe me or don't, it's up to you. I'm not going to send anymore letters because I've said what I've needed to.
