Samantha smiled. "That's excellent, Blair, I'm very happy that you will be delivering the invitation to Headmistress Rae, and I'm certain you will do an excellent job of it." Samantha could see how excited and happy Blair was to be handling this task, and this made her glad. She reached down into her desk and handed the invitation to Blair. "Here it is, they wanted it delivered personally, not by owl, since it is such an important event and the Minister didn't want any delays on his sister receiving the invitation. So those are the only instructions, that it be delivered personallly to her. You are simply to go to Hogwarts and deliver the invitation personally to Headmistress Rae. You are free to enjoy yourself on your trip, let me know if you hear of anything interesting that the Department might need to know about." Samantha smiled again, reassuringly this time. "That's probably not going to happen, don't worry."

Still, the rumors about students at Hogwarts turning into animals had been rather - disconcerting. Samantha thought better of mentioning those rumors to Blair, at least for the time being. She hoped they were simply rumors, or the Ministry was about to become a very busy place indeed.

Softly Samantha said, "Thank you again, Blair, for delivering the invitation. We will see you again soon."
