Meeting with Scrimgeour

Morning.

Hogwarts, Great Hall.

Andy opened the latest issue of The Daily Prophet, his eyes sweeping over the newspaper's headline.

Below the headline were four moving photographs of captured Death Eaters.

Strength! Intelligence! Grindelwald had no advantage in either.

So although Andy had tipped Grindelwald off, he had no confidence in him at all.

"But don't celebrate too soon."

Andy continued, "If Grindelwald is determined to hide, Dumbledore won't be able
