Card Number 10
Death
Dirk knew they were coming for him. He knew they would find out he falsified his family tree, he knew they would find him. He ran, ran as fast as he could, but they caught him, as he knew they would in the end. How could he outrun so many, so many who were after his blood.
He tried to hide, he lasted longer than he expected, he lived off the land and he hid. He wished he could have lasted to see the end of the war. He wished he could have lived to see Voldemort and the Death Eaters killed off one by one as they had been doing to the muggleborns. He wished he could have lived long enough to laugh as they were brought to justice.
But he didn't and that was okay too. Dirk welcomed death in the end, he smiled as his life was snuffed out with a well place killing curse. In death he could be free as he had never been in life, and that was okay.
