"Men can be protective of their sisters. I wouldn't take it personally." She's dreamed of marrying into the Fisk family when she was a young Hogwarts student, not for love but because of how close they all seemed. Dionisia had never imagined that by marrying into the family she'd also be isolating herself from a number of them — her best friend included. "Zelda's work situation makes her more susceptible to rumors, anyways. I'm sure he was merely trying to keep her from public criticism."
