Apr. 22nd, 2015 05:00 pmI went to talk with the Goblins today and walked into a bit of a situation.
Apparently Bellatrix arrived on Monday to take it out on them -- she killed three, including two of the Elders (Ur-Charg -- the one who was the Objector for our Argument -- and Ironforge) and one junior from Ironforge's clan, named Copperclaw. (That clan's one of the ones that don't give out their true-names to out-clan, just their use-names.) There was a fourth junior, Fralt, who Bella cursed with something, and he died this morning.
Griphook was so angry at me. He said a lot about how we set them up to be targets of Bella's anger, we should have realised this would happen, and so on and so forth. But Tcharg was there too, and he stopped Griphook and said it's no different than all the other times the people in charge have killed people, Goblin or not, for no good reason at all and at least we're working to stop them from doing that, and from there it got into an argument and switched to Gobbledygook using all kinds of words I don't know and I figured it was better for me to just express my sympathy and not push it. I don't know how it'll shake out or how many people agree with whom, but we're going to have to tread lightly for a while.
Alice, you may want to let Melli know that Fralt was from Ragnik's clan -- not close family, but family -- and as Ragnik's master it would be a sign of respect for her to attend the Remembering with Ragnik. Although I don't think Ragnik's been notified of the death yet, and it would be wrong for us to be the ones to do it, so hold off until he gets notified.
I'll be going to the Rememberings, definitely. Alice, Remus, both of you should go, too, if you can -- I'll coach you. Professor Dumbledore, I know you're very busy, but if you can get free, I really think you should. I'll let you all know as soon as I know when they'll be.
