Harry and the rest of his atrociously indebted group went to the Potions section of the library and filled their hands with Potions textbook.
The next Potions class included elements of pixie dust and ground beetles, and they did not trust the instructions in the text book.
The day went on, and they prepared for their classes and lessons. After the feasts in the Hall, Draco approached Harry.
"Well, I spoke to the goblin at Gringotts, they should be setting up an interview with some of the Ghenther. I believe that if we can set them up to lobby for themselves, then that solves half our problem."
"And what about the religious texts we sent out with the main figures names replaced with mine" asked Harry.
Draco started to scratch the back of his head.
"It doesn't look like there is much of an impact. In fact, I think some of the muggles are burning them where they can find them."
"Well, all things take time. Will Hermione be at the meeting as well?"
"Yep. It will be a scryying conference, where we can view them from a scrying stone onscreen. To them, it will look like we are in an office building and twenty years older. It is specially designed to beam into laptop computers."
"Looking forward to it. By the way Draco, what did this Dark Lord look like?"
"Well, I only know what my parents whisper about him, but he had jet black hair and red eyes due to all the dark magic that he did."
"What kind of magic makes your eyes red?"
"I dunno, Dark magic. Something that taints the soul or something."
"His soul. He tainted his soul?"
"Well yeah, that is what Dark magic is infamous for. It wrecks the soul. Nasty stuff."
"And the curse that he tried to kill me when he disappeared: it separates the soul from the body, doesn't it?"
"Yeah, no one could survive it, until you."
"Could it slice a part of the soul from a body, or just the entire soul?"
"Just the entire soul. It is very dark magic."
"Oh, yeah, it is a pretty destructive spell."
Harry turned around and slumped his shoulders, walking down to the Slytherin dorms.
The weekend soon approached, and so did the meeting with the goblin and some representatives of the Ghenther.
The group, Harry, Draco, Ron, Hermione, and Neville made their way to an abandoned classroom in the East wing of the Northern compound of Hogwarts.
There they set up a large scrying boulder, grey and etched in granite. They set it on a large professor's table, and re-organized chairs around it. Soon, the image of a goblin appeared on the stone. "The representatives, a Mr. Anders and a Mrs. Gunt are set to meet you. The identities that have been set up for you are that you are business people from England looking to set up a lobbying group to aid them in their troubles in Canada."
"Okay, got it" said Harry.
"Well, here they are."
Two faces appeared on the screen of two dumpy looking people, a man and a woman.
"Good evening" said Hermione "we just want to say that you have the fullest sympathies from us. The persecutions of the Canadian government on you is but the tip of the iceberg, and I want to help before it gets any worse."
"While we" Draco indicated Harry, Neville, and himself "will probably exasperate the situation to your advantage. What troubles you today?"
"Well" said the woman "it all started with the 5g towers. They started to give the government these ideas for a new World Order. See, a disease spread, the Chinese Virus, probably intentional, but definitely released from a lab. And now the government wants to vaccinate everyone. Well I say no."
Hermione is checking a thick tome in front of her, labeled "The Idiot's Guide to the Bible" "You don't want the vaccinations because of God. Right. Because of divinity and the divine message of the Bible?" Hermione asked, glancing down at the book for a few quick notes.
"Yeah" said the woman "God doesn't fear a virus. God doesn't need a vaccine."
But the man remained silent.
"Don't you just want things to be normal. To go back to how things were before the 5g towers and the virus" asked Harry in a sympathetic voice.
"Yeah" said the man "these new rules to enforce vaccinations of me are getting out of hand. Why the other day I was asked for proof of vaccination before being able to go to my favorite restaurant for a taco. I dinnit have any, and they kicked me out. I'm going to boycott that business, I will."
Harry leaned in "but you will boycott it to go back to normalcy?"
"Yeah" said the man, while the woman said "I do this for GOD."
"We don't have bottomless funds, but we are looking to lobby the government and to spread the word."
Here Hermione stepped in "spread that word that the divine message of God doesn't allow wanton vaccinations, nor the persecution of those that refuse them. Ask for donations, and be willing to risk everything to keep your God given rights."
Hermione then crossed off a note in her tome.
Harry then leaned in "Or, you do this just to get back to normal, to how things were before all this happened. Spread the word of a movement to get things back to normal, before the government over reached on your secular rights, and to go back to how you used to live your life before this upset. Be prepared to ask for donations and volunteers ready to risk it all for a chance to go back to normalcy."
The goblin then appeared on the screen, looking like an aged banker. "Well, it looks like the time of this meeting is up. I will send the paper work to you" he indicated to the dumpy man and woman "and you can start lobbying your government and looking for donations or volunteers for your movement."
The scrying stone then went blank, and Hermione turned to her friends: "I think that went well."
