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.Where will you fall?

Febs,
First, firewhiskey is an awful, horrible substance. Why on Earth would anyone drink it willingly? It causes the most awful headaches.
Second, where on Earth did you get that book and was it enchanted to make a person lose all sense of propriety?

I'm not telling, not in a letter anyway, you'll have to wait and find out when you come home. I believe we should have our own night of firewhiskey. I have stories for you.
Should I be concerned about the combination of whiskey and losing your sense of propriety? What has London done to you? I wish you'd taken me with you, more than you could ever know.
Febs,
It was quite delicious. Especially with these amazing cookies I found from a bakery in Diagon Alley. However, that was a major problem apparently. Especially when a shirtless man is the one that greets you at the door and hands you the bottle.
Merlin's beard, Febs, I don't even know where to start! Damn this fog and damn our separate locations. I have so much to tell you I'm not even sure I should write it all out in a letter!
Tuni
Yes I agree, though these are conversations better left to a night in and lots and lots of time to share. I hope you're feeling alright today, a pepperup potion should help any lingering hangover.
Febs,
He was. But not at first. His roommate and teammate answered the door. I was just bringing cookies by but.. Yes, we need a night together to talk. He did at least put a shirt on at one point. But Rufus didn't show up until after the bottle was nearly empty.
I'll see if Eliza can manage to scrounge one up for me. The light and being on my feet does not help so I'm quite content to stay here in my bed.
Tuni
Feel better, try and eat a little. I know it sounds unappealing, but it'll help.
Febs,
I actually have started working. I started that next day. It's helped to pass the time, honestly. But, luckily, I was off through the weekend and today. I go back tomorrow. Hopefully I'll have kicked this by then.
How did you manage to break your wand? It sounds like you're still managing to keep things exciting amidst the fog. At least on occasion.
I'll send Eliza out to get something. I'll have her pick up something extra from the bakery I told you about. The cookies really are that amazing.
Tuni
Oh it's Rufus now is it?
Please share some cookies if you get some, I could use a little something new in my day.
Febs,
Tell me about this Mr. Ollivander. I've heard good things of him. Perhaps he could be a good distraction for you stuck in Hogsmeade. I also hope poor Adromeda is okay!
And yes, Rufus. I told you, there's lots to tell.
Eliza ran by the bakery for me. Brought home some rolls and they have helped some. I'm sending along a package of the cookies. This Magdalena is quite an artist as well. Just look at how realistic the cookies look as flowers. When I marry, she'll be the one I hire.
Tuni
Thank you for the cookies, they are quite delicious. They could rival Mrs. Harding's, but I would never tell her that and I'm hiding them in my room so I don't have to share. When you get married hmm? Does Rufus have a chance then?
Febs,
Oh, don't tell me the stuffy auror has somehow managed to capture your attention! I thought he was awful! Clearly we need this chat sooner rather than later somehow. Have you any way to get to London? My father got me rooms while I'm stuck here and Eliza is with me so it isn't completely improper. We could get you your job at the same time!
And yes, he most certainly has a chance. If he were to ask me to elope while we were here in London, I might seriously take him up on it. Though, I'm certain he's far too much of a gentleman to even suggest a thing.
Tuni
I would certainly be very affronted if you eloped without telling me or at least letting me witness before you leave on some whirlwind adventure! How rude!
Febs,
I do think I'll be alright. My father has seen to a set of rooms for Eliza and I. As long as the fog doesn't last forever, they'll do. If it does though, you'll need to find a way here. I don't want to be stuck in London without a friend.
And I'll try not to elope until you can be here. I'd need a witness after all and while Eliza would work, it would be far more joyous with you around.
Tuni
I appreciate your forethought on eloping, I promise to do the same for you. I would never want that big fancy wedding, let's be honest here. What an adventure it would be! I hope you're feeling well, get some rest tonight, I'll check on you in the morning. Sweet dreams!
