The castle is so quiet.
How is everyone faring with their studies? Perhaps we should all take a break and journey somewhere? I do not think organizing such a trip would be terribly difficult.
What do you say, Headmistress Hufflepuff? |

{Private to Professor Riddle - or shall I call you "Lord Voldemort" now?}
Your transformation is almost complete, am I correct? I would advise you against ripping your soul in twine if at all possible. This island is ever-changing. There is no place for you to safely put the pieces.
As for the Potter child, it has come to my attention that you have baited him in the past. Was your stint as a child insufficient? I could appeal to the gods to put you back into that weak shell. I doubt they are happy with you as it stands.
And if, for some strange reason, you believe I am threatening you, I am not. I was a close companion of your ancestor and I miss him dearly. I wish to help you, but I cannot ignore the ill you cause on this island. I must do as my heart dictates.

{Private to Albus Severus Potter}
There is no light in darkness, dear one. Stop searching for that which died long ago.

{Private to Albus Dumbledore}
A punishment will befall him. It will be much worse than those punishments that proceeded it.

My diadem has been returned to me. How curious. |

{Private to Helga}
It seems there was a threat made against the students of this castle. Did you see it?
I do not know who this...man...is, but I have set about strengthening the castle's defenses. I will not risk any lives.
Additionally, I do not think any classes should be held outside unless they are held in the Greenhouses.
What do you think?
{/}
I advise everyone to stay alert. If you must go outside, ensure that you are either with someone or you have brought your journal and wand with you.
I will also be holding extra classes solely based on defense. These are not mandatory, but it might be of use if you feel unsettled. |

And so it begins.

{Private to Albus Dumbledore, Gellert Grindelwald and Harry Potter}
How well do you know this Riddle fellow? (And you needn't answer this quickly. Please see to your needs first and foremost, Albus.)
{/}
{Private to Helga}
I do not wish for you to travel into the forests alone. Something is not quite right within them.

[Added later...]
I am getting quite a headache. I do wonder if this has something to do with the package I received today. Curious indeed. |

Whomever sent the chocolates, they are delectable. Thank you for the sweet gesture. I will have to exercise strength of will to not eat them all in one sitting.
{Private to Dear Helga}
Were you the recipient of some chocolate as well? Shall we enjoy them together? I could feed you some, you do realize.

{Private to Self}
My self conjuring is going remarkably well. However, I am fearful of what I spotted the eve before last. I think it would be prudent to approach him on the matter rather than pretend I saw nothing.
{/}
{Private to Professor Riddle}
I saw some of your "gifts". Would you care to speak about them over tea?
{/}
{Added - Public to All Teachers and Students}
Professor Riddle will be leaving us. Your Transfiguration classes will be taught, briefly, by myself until we can find a replacement.

{Private}
I have never been one to blush or stumble uselessly over my words, yet the very idea that she and I could...
On a night such as Samhain...
How I do wish to kiss her.
Does that make me a wretched woman? Does that make me less in the eyes of men? I had a daughter, yes. I had a husband as well. But love and marriage do not always go hand in hand, and she was always the gentler side of me. I have been away from her for too long. Helena will understand when she arrives. Perhaps she too shares her mother's penchant for fair women with warm hearts.

Fins cuers doulz, joliete,
Amouretes m'ont navré;
Por ce sui mas et pensis,
Si n'a en moy jeu ne ris,
Car a vous, conpaignete,
Ay mon cuer einsi doné.
Translation: Sweet noble heart, pretty lady,
I am wounded by love;
So that I am sad and pensive,
And have no joy or mirth,
For to you, my sweet companion,
I have thus given my heart. |

There is too much mischief in the air.
The stars are pointing to it as well.
This might turn out to be a more eventful term than I originally expected.
Exitus acta probat. I will wait.

I do not know why I expected her to be present. This is but a facade of the School I once inhabited. My child would not be here. She remains with her Baron: the very man who slew her.
How can I bear to have her there, do you ask?
Well, it is quite easy when one can do nothing.
Helena will always be my pride and joy. If it were not for her, I am certain I would have given into life's fickle ways long before my time.
No parent should suffer to lose a child.
This is the anniversary of my poor daughter's death. I will be spending my evening recalling her memory as best as I am able. Perhaps a mother's prayers will be answered, and she will once again be at my side.
The troubles that haunt me, that burn me inside,
Move out from my body and into the sky.
Into my body flows purity and peace,
I am cleansed by the Goddess, my struggles released.
If you could spare a thought for my Helena on this day, I would appreciate it dearly.

Concerning the Dorm situation, you will find that your four poster, at least, has been changed to suit your House colors. |

I have gathered some text that you might find informative. They were left just outside your door so that you may gather them at your disposal.

I'm not certain what I would do if I saw a youth filled me running around. She would be properly dressed: that is for certain. Though I fear her distaste for shoes in general would override her ability to hold the prim disguise.
{Private; Helga}
Now a young you, on the other hand, would be delightful.

My questions of you are numerous. If you would bid me pardon to speak my mind, I would be most grateful.
