Order Only: Emergency Floo call in the middle of the night

[alt_arthur]

Something's happening at Taunton Deane. I was rousted out of bed at 3:00 a.m. by Griderson, telling me to get into the office as soon as I can. He wanted to know anything I could tell him about the security arrangements of the camp, given that I had just visited it recently. Details are sketchy, but it appears there was a disturbance timed to coincide with the performance of a Christmas programme. Griderson is being tight-lipped, but I think some administrators are being held hostage. I wonder if one of them is Charles Chicory.

Bill, get me any information you can glean.

All right. I'm getting the news with a bit of a lag, but there's another report now. It was a group that had the Regional Director in tow. They've been apprehended and the man has been rescued, albeit badly hexed.

They were heading to the regional warehouse of the Sleepers. Apparently they tried to Imperius him to get him to awaken them, but he couldn't. Didn't have the power to do so.

The MLE has broken through the resistance at Taunton Deane and regained control of the hostages. A few were hexed, but all of the hostages lived. Can't say the same for the attackers. At least seventeen dead, but there's word of a few prisoners.
