Private Message to Gunther Goyle and Dominic Selwyn

[alt_lucius]

Goyle.

Tell me that that imbecile of a son of yours did not lose his journal and fail to report the same.

Less than two hours before Court?

St James' Square. NOW. Pray you have a good explanation for this.

Dominic, assume you and Travers' analysts are already trying to trace the true author.

MLE are certainly alerted to the gravity of the situation and I've arranged for Travers to meet me here with Gunther.

No, it was never established with certainty, but the options are few and the portraits were adamant they recognised the culprit. How he gained entry eludes me, as there should have been protections against the same. But it's still possible he had assistance - a password or some other information.

There's something about the style that rings a bell, at any rate. And the handwriting. I'm sure I've seen it before.

In any event, my concern currently is that Gunther is fully prepared to report to Our Lord. You've not been to Court recently; you may not be aware that He has been ... more unpredictable than usual of late. Gather that it has a great deal to do with the delicate nature of His most recent research. Not that I care whether Gunther protects his own sorry carcase, but Our Lord's temper may rival Carrow's at this latest affront. If Goyle intends to keep himself - or his son - alive, he had best provide a credible excuse.

Indeed. My responsibilities have kept me quite occupied, but I've heard certain rumours.

Then you'll understand it is wise not to be anywhere near the cross-fire these days.

Quite.
