Order Only: Private message to Charlie and Mac

[alt_rachel]

(And let Mina know, too.)

We're ready for you here. I've sent Enforcer Peel to the apparation point to meet you. Some of the more dangerous creatures are loose -- it's how we provided a distraction for our entry. It didn't sound like they had a Manticore at the moment, but I'd lay odds there's at least one Welsh Green.

Fuck me running, watch out, there's a shitload of boggarts around the entrance. Peel saw it as a lethifold and we nearly shit our pants until it flipped into mine and we realised what it was.

I'm going to take a turn around the grounds, actually, before meeting you. I want to get a better sense of what we're dealing with here.

[alt_rachel]

Do you suppose people actually want to hunt boggarts, or do you think she uses to those to cheat people who think they want to hunt lethifolds?

I'll let the other teams know about the boggarts, thank you.

[alt_charlie]

The four I've spotted so far have been drifting around freely, so they may have just been attracted by the fear and death. If you've got anyone free who's good at dealing with them, can you send them along to box them up? I've got

[alt_rachel]

You alright? I'll see about sending someone to manage the boggarts.

[alt_charlie]

Yeah, sorry, I'm okay, hang on --

[alt_charlie]

Sorry, dumbass me needs to learn not to walk and write at the same time. I nearly fell into a charnel pit before Peel grabbed me by the robes and yanked me back.

I'm not going to look too closely into this right now, there's more important things to do, but it looks like this is where they've been dumping the carcasses of all the animals people have been hunting. The bits they didn't want for trophies, I mean. We might want to get Hermione and Sluggy, and maybe Melli and Ragnik, down here in the morning to see if there's any ingredients they can use. I definitely can see dragonhide from where I'm standing right now, so we can probably get some heartstring out of it.

Thank Merlin for the charms they have on this to keep it from reeking, is all I'll say.

[alt_rachel]

Merlin. THESE PEOPLE.

Justin found a naked girl in a cage, apparently. Of COURSE they threw their dragon carcasses into a pit to rot.

Snowdonia is large and would be difficult to secure and defend, long term. We may have some time in the morning but it's possible we should send for a salvage team tonight. Hermione and Slughorn, at least.

[alt_charlie]

Yeah, good idea. I'll write them both. Sluggy's not going to want to come out this late, but Hermione might be able to grab one or two other people who are decent with Creatures and know what to do for ingredients.

And of course Justin found a naked lady. If anyone were going to, it would be him.

[alt_charlie]

Okay, Hermione at least is coming, and I told her to bring a few extra hands.
