Ron Weasley

Desai says to tell you we've followed runic waymarks out from W train. N and NE, first. Little to no resistance there. Mopped up what we encountered.

Now SW. Have found prisoners to question at SW village 2, so here for now. Strong case for collusion. Collecting evidence.

Advise if needed elsewhere.

Interesting thing happened yesterday. I dunno whether I'm supposed to say anything, but I reckon it's not really a secret. Least Nick didn't say it was.

So after the YPL meeting, which was pretty interesting, though I still want to be an Auror not a Healer, even if some of them do work on crime scenes and the like. But afterwards, Harry and I were talking and since we had our coats with us, we decided to go outside even though it was still bucketing down out there. And that was really nift, skimming stones on the lake and watching the rain come down on it.

Um, but that's not the thing.

After we came in, we were walking over towards Gryffindor when we ran into Nearly Headless Nick--I mean, we came round a corner and both of us walked right through him, 'cause he was reading something and didn't notice us coming--and then he invited us to come to his 'deathday party' next Saturday night. I guess he'll have been dead exactly 500 years on Saturday. And, anywiz, Granger says it's a real honour to be invited to a ghost's deathday celebration, and I guess she spends more time talking to the ghosts than the rest of us do, so probably she'd know. Nick seemed really keen to have Harry come, which I guess makes sense, since he's who he is.

Anywiz, I guess I'm going to that instead of the Halloween Feast on Saturday. I'll let you know what it's like!
