After a bout of fighting, Wizet and the others spotted Amelia Bones in the distance, along with Rufus Scrimgeour, who was directing the Aurors in battle.
Quite a few Death Eaters and prisoners had fallen nearby. Rufus Scrimgeour and the other Aurors were not in good shape either, their robes stained red with blood.

Wizet was not
