Dear Professor Dumbledore.
I am sorry it has taken me so long to get back to you, I had a very nice time speaking with Professor Moody about the life of an Auror, I was going to be one once, when I was young and full of dreams, before I found the noble career of inspection.
You know it just occurred to me that standard procedure dictates five (5) quarterly reports to be delivered to the inspected during a year, but I have just found so many infractions that I have written many more then that amount. But this is hardly a 'standard' inspection, so I think it is to be expected.
I see that you have disregarded my suggestion to keep Mr. Potter out of the tournament, while not entirely unexpected, it does disappoint me, and I will be making a point of it in my report. A very large and consequential point.
Also I see that you have not yet contacted Mr. Potter's guardians as of yet. Do not worry, I will be sending them a letter outlining all the risks of the tournament, and just what they can expect to become of their adopted son if they allow him to enter it. So please do not count on Mr. Potter participating just yet, I am sure that his guardians will put a stop to this nonsense.
Cygnus Stixrood, Chief Centennial Inspector, Department For Permits And Filing
P.S. I do think it was just a joke, but Professor Moody mentioned that you were allowing him to use unforgivable curses on his students. Being Chief Centennial Inspector I must inspect all irregularities. Please confirm that he was joking.
