It rained last night. We had to pick up camp and move back into the cave, which was hard because the last wand we had left (Gauis's) broke. Still no sign of the Dark Lord. He never answered Marguerite. Marguerite was the last left in our coven with the mark. She died yesterday. Now we have no way to find him. Nicholas said he was losing hope in the Dark Lord. Sampson killed him for it. I'd never tell anyone, but I'm losing hope too. He hasn't spoken to us in years. Since before I was born, since our coven set off to find the Hallows. We still haven't found them. We will one day. Anilla said that she thought she saw disembodied feet, the shimmer of a cloak. We hoped she was right. We never found the cloak. Anilla wasn't lying, we used the last of our veritaserum to find out. Gaius cursed her. His wand broke within hours. We're suspicious. But we're out of vodka to make veritaserum. We'll never find out if she cursed Gaius, somehow.
