Ch. 1041I've Already Spoken with Restraint
Wizet deduced that Voldemort was using the Dark Mark to draw wizards and Ministry investigators toward him, while buying time to rally the Death Eaters. As Voldemort denounced the Statute of Secrecy, Wizet prepared to disable the Dark Mark and asked Dumbledore how quickly he could reach Voldemort in Europe.
- Silver corporeal Patronuses informed Dumbledore about Voldemort, and Wizet pieced together how he planned to use the Dark Mark to attract wizards.
- Wizet reflected that he had withheld details about Voldemort, including his connection to Hepzibah Smith, to avoid provoking him before the Horcruxes were found.
- Voldemort condemned the International Statute of Secrecy as an obstacle to wizarding progress while Cornelius Fudge anxiously pressed Wizet for Voldemort's location.
- Wizet chose not to reveal that he had tracked Voldemort and considered ways to make the Dark Mark ineffective.
- Wizet asked Dumbledore how quickly he could reach Voldemort if he was in Europe, and Dumbledore said he could try to find a nearby location.
