Chapter 4

"Rufus, tell me how you attempted to get rid of this law again?" Bernard was in the office of the Head of the Auror Office, reviewing things with his longtime friend, Rufus Scrimgeour. Rufus sat down across from Bernard, and opened up a file.

"We started with a simple finite incantatem, but of course, it didn't do anything at all." He scanned the notes about events regarding the Nott Family Records. "Then, one of my aurors tried a finite maxima, but the page took notice and he crumpled to the floor. He's been taking Skele-Gro for a week since. Realizing standard spells wouldn't work, we tried to use runes." Rufus pointed at a line of runes. "Our runes specialist, Marie Selwyn, used some pretty intense runes, one that almost burned the table we were working on, and such. That seemed to make the book put up an extra defense. Now, it needs someone of Nott blood to get through the first ward before we can find out what to do next. The problem is-"

"You don't know what to do next yet." Bernard interrupted him. "I have a few ideas, but I'll be looking through my family tome for the next few days. Can I get back to you once I find something?" he requested, not sure if Scrimgeour would let him, but he nodded.

"This bloody curse might bring all of my aurors down soon, so I find that your idea is probably best. Floo-call me when you discover a solution." he responded. Bernard nodded and stepped towards the fireplace.

"Thanks again, Rufus," the Head Auror inclined his head. Bernard took a handful of Floo powder and uttered a loud "Nott Manor!"
