I know that this report concerning Flamel's Stone is quite a bit late, but it's not easy to send a on-time report when you've been nothing more than mere shadow and vapor for at least 13 years. You know very well how my attack on the Potters went.
I do understand why you want the Stone though, incomplete as it is. It may contain Clues that we already posses, but others we do not. While you may ask why I did not go after the Stone while I still had physical form, let me tell you this. That Ekat Flamel and his wife were near untraceable, and by the time the Stone was finally moved to Gringotts where I would have a much easier time getting to it, I had already been turned to something… not quite there.
Though I do thank you for giving one of our other agents for me to possess, I must admit Quirrell was not all that useful. He was barely a competent wizard, and nearly had to rely on my power all the time. And he was a miserable failure too. I do not regret that he was lost, even though he was a member of our noble branch.
Quirrell did at least prove able to get to the hiding place of the Stone. However, that Tomas brat Harry Potter showed up, and while he did get the Stone, it was destroyed when Quirrell couldn't follow my orders properly.
This is a great blow to our House, but we will still prevail in the search for the 39 Clues. Glory to the Lucians!
