It wasn't long after she had arrived that Dacosta stepped onto the scene, first greeting a woman and then addressing the entire crowd. Food samples....got it. And she would have her own little team. That would work. Esme waved a hand as Dacs spoke her name just to let anyone unfamiliar to her know who she was.

Bloodhounds? She had never noticed any sort of animal within the Ministry and she had to admit that a team of hounds was actually pretty cool. How helpful they would be though...was another story.

Setting her kit on a nearby table, Esme reached inside and slipped on a pair of gloves. And then added another. One couldn't be too careful when dealing with the unknown.

Now she would wait to see if any volunteers approached. If not, then she'd simply begin her sampling. They could always join in later.
