Dear A.,

Prudence is both an admirable and a necessary trait in our society; I can hardly begrudge you showing the restraint and care I myself profess to possess. I do not at all take it as a slight against my character that you should wish to protect yourself, just as I seek to protect myself in turn.

My own house, whilst at Hogwarts, was Slytherin. This, I think, says a great deal about my personality and goals, though I do not wish you to think I do not value an education. Shortly after my time there, I did also master my animagus form and I have long had an affinity for transfiguration in general. In addition to this, I hold a fondness for languages, though am not so well-versed in foreign tongues as I would like.

Though I lost my mother in my youth, I have two elder sisters who I love dearly and who I observe as exemplars after which to model myself and my actions.

I have never fancied myself much of a detective, but from your enclosure I am forced to wonder if you are tied to the museum in some fashion. Perhaps I ought pay it a visit in the near future.

Sincerely,
