He had heard about her. The girl who was poisoned, that is. Such an evil word, poisoned. The way the papers made it sound, someone purposely slipped something in the girls food to 'poison' her. Which implied that it wasn't an accident.

He sure as hell hoped not.

The leather chair that Rodolphus sat in formed comfortably around his body, and the smell of burning wood from his fireplace filled the room with a heavy glow of warmth, the heat illuminating the glass of brandy that he so casually held in his hand. His eyes were on the glass window pane, watching the world slip by in its silence so early in the morning. Or late in the night. It brought a smooth smile to his lips... even the world outside seemed to unaware of what this meant, let alone the idiotic people that flooded it.

It meant that Rodolphus was not alone, and that his followers were prepared to take action against the filthy, soiled bloods of their age. The time was now, after all. No one expected danger. Voldemort was gone, a brilliant man, but weak in the end when it came to control. After all, what kind of grown man couldn't kill a little boy? Rodolphus could kill that little boy.

In fact, he planned to.

But back to the girl, ordered his thoughts. Yes, the girl. The dirty, disgusting excuse of a human being that was the girl. She was still alive. Harmed greatly, yes, but alive, nonetheless. That would have to be fixed, also. They would all have to be fixed. For a moment, just a brief second, Rodolphus allowed himself to think what it would be like if she had died. If they had found a way to eradicate the filth from the planet. He shivered at the thought, excitement dripping down his spine... he sipped his brandy to warm himself. Yes.. he wanted that.  He wanted to walk down the streets knowing that all of the mudbloods and muggles and, why stop there? Bloodtraitors, too... that they were all dead, their bodies piled and burned because, of course, a proper burial was something saved for human beings. Proper wizards. Not for those with dirt in their veins.

He smirked and sipped his brandy again, staring outside... out at HIS world. Not yet... but it would be his. Just in a matter of time.

The sound of the door opening only to shut interrupted the silence. "Been busy, brother-in-law?"

He didn't wait for an introduction; the cool etiquette in his voice heralded his arrival regardless of introductions. The sound of clinking glass and cold liquid leaving the decanter as he poured himself a bit of the brandy that Rodolphus was enjoying himself.

"I didn't foresee you, my good man, enjoying the same mistakes as your predecessor. Has your wife's death brought you so much grief that you've lost control of your senses?"

He brought the glass to his lips and took an investigatory drink--quite a good brand. "We're on the tail-end of a lost war, and you want to begin anew? Don't you think time would grant us anonymity?"

The smell of the brandy alone could make him intoxicated, but as Rodolphus spoke, he felt an unmistakable soberness pass over him. "You're giving them a target." He moved toward him and watched him with a hint of disbelief. "You realize, brother-in-law, that the reason the Dark Lord was so successful at first--stemmed in part from the fact that they never saw it coming. You are giving them alarm. Only now will they decide to give pause and grow a backbone. If you wait and let them feel they've won? Well, it would be akin to taking candy from a baby. And pardon me, but that sounds much more preferable to losing a battle of this magnitude." He took another sip of the brandy. He appeared quite calm even though he spoke of death, misfortune, and war.

This would be the first time Lucius found himself feeling a particular way. Nevertheless, he would lift the glass of brandy towards him. "Then to your success, brother-in-law. I wish you victory in your pursuits." He drank the rest of the brandy from the glass and set it down. A new set smile across his face before he turned his back towards him. Perhaps a moment spent clutching the head of his cane. The smile did not leave his lips. "Just make sure you know which are the right sort to trust. It would be a pity if all this was for nothing." The sound of his door opening and falling shut could be heard afterwards.

Even though he was traveling internationally, Graham had to be careful. The disapparation border patrol recognised him, asking him for autographs and photographs and the usual fare, though luckily they didn't inquire as to why he was leaving the country.

The outskirts of Moscow. He had his destination in mind for a visit to an old, exiled family friend, who had been residing there. Rodolphus Lestrange. His house elf was able to communicate with Rodolphus' so that he had the exact address. Graham's winter cloak wasn't nearly warm enough; his boots crunched above the snow as he trudged up to the front door, his hood drawn over his head for warmth and anonymity.

Finally, he reached the large oak doors and pounded his fist three times against them, anxiously waiting. He had not seen Rodolphus Lestrange since he was a young boy, but the man was close with his father; if rumours were true, Rodolphus may be interested in his latest accomplishment.

Graham's boots, still wet from the snow, squeaked against the marble flooring of the entrance hall. He was sure the house-elf would be mopping that up straight away once he led him to the room with the crackling fire.

Graham was instantly warmer in that room, removing his hood as he stood by the door that closed behind him. He hesitated, staring at the back of a regal armchair, able to see the top of a man's head and his arm hanging over the side, clutching a glass of what appeared to be liquor. The tip of a black boot was also visible, and Graham, usually up on the highest wizarding fashion, recognised it as fresh dragonhide.

He cleared his throat, feeling his heart hammering a bit faster. Aside for one brief, vague conversation with Theo Nott, he hadn't spoken of his potion to anyone, and he only hoped that the rumours were true-- that he didn't make this trip for nothing.

"Good evening, Master Lestrange... We met well over a decade ago, when I was just a boy. You knew my father well. Sigmund Montague. I do hope you don't mind me paying you an unexpected visit at this late hour."
