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!

Well fuck. This wasn't going to go well if the auror caught her looking like a snack for her girlfriend. The blonde ran a hand through her hair as she sat back against the wall. Fuck. Her eyes found Alana and she just shook her head slightly. "Love clean you mouth..." she managed to get out of herself before turning her attention to Aiden when approached them as fast as the little power ranger could. She didn't care about herself, Alana needed to be okay and he knew that more than anything.
"I know they're coming, just make sure her face is clean..." she would figure something out. The blonde looked around noticing a shard not far from her. She reached for it and groaned. "The shit I do for love." she grumbled before cutting herself where the bite was with the shard. Now it wouldn't look like a bite and the shard covered in blood was enough evidence to cover it up.
Kaylie held onto the shard and whined a bit as she shifted. "Fuck.."

Grace nodded absently at Aiden telling her she needed to go get help for herself after this because her bleeding? It wasn't important. She wasn't the one stuck under a tree, screaming. She wasn't little Sally Jordan, knocked out on the ground. She wasn't poor Richard laying on the ground, an array of injuries marring his body. All of those people? They had it worse than her right at this moment.
"I'm not hurt, Ollie. I'm okay. Promise," Grace told the girl, calmly answering her questions. It was a lie, one that Grace even felt guilty for telling, but she didn't want to worry her further. Ollie staying as calm as she could given the circumstances was a priority.
Just as the others were about to start the leviosa charm, Grace was interrupted by an older woman, one she recognised. Josephine Jones? She'd been a Hufflepuff back in school, a few years older than Grace. Immediately her instructions had Grace wavering because... had she given the wrong ones? Would she have injured poor Olivia even more? But then question after question seemed to be asked and Grace said, "I... there's a matron in the hall. I don't know about the healers, but I want to get her arm stabilised. I don't have my wand, or skelegro, but I know how to... to at least protect it until it's seen to. I don't want her to do any more damage."
A moment later, a hand on her arm caught her attention and her eyes met Aiden's, his green eyes intense. She nodded at his instructions, her uninjured arm cradling the ribbons that he produced from his wand. "I... yes. Okay. I can do this. I can... I can do this. It'll all be fine," she said, voice growing steadier with each word though whether she was trying to convince him or herself, she didn't know.
The swear that fell from Aiden's lips normally would have Grace's cheeks turning pink though from being scandalised or... something else, she didn't know. But in this moment, she was too focused on the job at hand, helping move Ollie towards her the best she could. It was lucky the other girl was so light or else she would have been in trouble. Eyes scanning over the girl careful, she took in her appearance before gently saying, "I know it hurts, Ollie, but do you think you can sit up so I can get your arm wrapped? If you can hold your sore arm up with your other arm, I'll work as fast as I can."
Ollie was nervous, her eyes scanned from one person to the next because she couldn't keep them closed. Staying calm wasn't easy with a tree on top of you and her sister giving instructions like she did at home when the kids needed to help with something. Ollie just chewed on her lip and waited for the tree to get off of her. This whole moment felt like it lasted forever, the tree hurting her arm and once it was off she felt Grace trying to help her get away from the tree.
Ollie tried to sit up as Grace asked and nodded. "Ow.." her arm was bent into the wrong direction, she actually saw her bone stick out but not piercing her skin luckily. Ollie did as she was told and cried. "It hurts really bad.." she said and looked around. "Are my siblings okay?" she asked them looking at each face. "Mia? David? Clary? Suzie?" she sniffled. Ollie needed to get off the floor and waited for Grace to wrap her arm up before trying to get on her feet. "Thank you.. all of you.."
This thread is now locked. All students will have been assisted by now, even if it hasn't been written out. Aurors have sent the attackers to St. Mungos for further examination. If you are a writer who has a character aligned with The Trossachs, we have an important plot event coming up. If you are interested in participating, please contact admin. Thank you.
