TITLE: Dead Letters: Albus Dumbledore
RATING: G

My dear boy,

Forgive me the impunity one last time, old friend, and try not to scowl too much.

The Defence post is yours, I've seen to it. Minerva had very strict instructions. Tell her that I'll miss her, by the way. And the rest of the staff as well.

Try to preserve the things I cared about. I trust you with this. Of course you will want to do things your own way. Just… be careful. That's all I ask.

Oh, and Severus? Look after Harry. He's important to all of us. Yes, even you.

Yours affectionately,
Albus Dumbledore
