Dear Mr. Lissington,

September 1st

Thank you for taking the time to meet with me. 

I was taking your advice and doing some research into curses when I came upon this rather interesting 'muggle' curse.  I put it in parenthesis because although the curse is known to muggles I believe it may be real.  The Bjorketorp Runestone in Sweden appears to me to be one! Thus far I've only found muggle references to the curse, do you know if there is something actually magical about it? Am I barking up the wrong tree?  Or have I succumbed to the Hermetic orders deluson that something mundane is actually of magical origin?

You can be honest with me!

With Kind Thanks
Miss Christable Dempsey

Miss Dempsey,

The pleasure was all mine. I look forward to you at the Isis-Urania Temple.

As for your curse, I can't say I'm expert on it, and honestly I would have to visit the site to see if it seems there's anything magical. It's hard to explain but I'm sure you've felt it, especially in the muggle realm where magic isn't as prominent. Sometimes you can feel the curses pulsing, and that's a sign to leave. (Or if you're a curse breaker - charge forward.) It's highly possible that the runes are protecting something because graves always tend to have personal magical items that people don't want others to have. That's why entire tombs are filled with curse after curse, as someone thought their personal belongings were worth protecting, even after death.

Although whether or not it's actually worth something can't be determined until it's seen. I would hope that whatever the Bjorketorp Runestone is protecting, if anything, is worth the risk. I'm interested to see what the muggles think.

I wouldn't call it a delusion just yet. The rumors have to start from somewhere. I hope that helps!

Best,
Gus
