Welcome to Charming, where swirling petticoats, the language of flowers, and old-fashioned duels are only the beginning of what is lying underneath…
After a magical attempt on her life in 1877, Queen Victoria launched a crusade against magic that, while tidied up by the Ministry of Magic, saw the Wizarding community exiled to Hogsmeade, previously little more than a crossroad near the Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. In the years that have passed since, Hogsmeade has suffered plagues, fires, and Victorian hypocrisy but is still standing firm.
Thethe year is now 1894. It’s time to join us and immerse yourself in scandal and drama interlaced with magic both light and dark.
Are you perchance engaged, or have you recently been engaged, in any negotiations with a blackmailer? If so could you please send details — I have found myself involved.
Blackmailers? Oh, Shelly what have you gotten yourself into this time? Thus far I haven’t seen any post referring to blackmail, but something tells me I should have Millie keep an eye out for it.
On second thought, perhaps it’s better if I do, that poor girl missed not one but two letters from my publishers last month.
Not me — Don Juan. I might write 'predictably' but I admit that I haven't the faintest why this was brought to my attention so you can be forgiven for not having made the connection without my specifying.
I'll handle it — my assistant doesn't misplace the post.
