Minister of Magic Deflects!


Undesirable No. 1, former
Minister of Magic Fierro Darque

In a shocking turn of events, it has been revealed Minister of Magic Fierro Darque is no longer amongst us. No, the Minister of Magic has not died, but he has been demoted from Minister of Magic to Undesirable No. 1 seemingly overnight. While Lord Williams was not clear why Darque has deflected, he did express his deep regret such an influential man would choose such a treasonous course of action in this morning's press release.

It is believed Undesirable Darque has deflected to the terrorist group known as the Order of the Phoenix. The man is thought to have freed Kara Viridian, a known Order member captured during the Order's attack at the botched execution of their leader, Damien Noland last month. Given his extensive knowledge, the government is offering no less than 100,000 galleons* for the delivery of Darque alive. For his head, no less than 50,000 galleons** has been offered. Reward to be paid upon delivery. The deflector is considered dangerous.
