The stone corridors of Durmstrang were colder than usual that night. Torchlight flickered across the carved walls, throwing long shadows that seemed to breathe with the mountain wind.
I didn't bother knocking politely. I rapped twice on the Headmaster's door — hard enough to echo — before pushing it open.
Karkaroff was already waiting behind his desk, draped in his usual fur-lined cloak, a faint sneer tugging at his lips. His office smelled of ink, brandy, and cold steel — like the man himself.

"Mr. Gustafson," he said smoothly, fingers steepled. "Do close the door. We have... unpleasant business."
I did as he asked, jaw tightening. "If this is about tonight's hunt, my team has clearance—"
"Had clearance," he interrupted, his tone sharp as ice. "Effective immediately, I am suspending all monster-hunting operations within Durmstrang jurisdiction."
My pulse spiked. "You can't just—"
"Oh, I can," he said, rising from his chair. "And before you waste your breath, the order didn't come from me."
He reached into his desk drawer and pulled out a sealed letter stamped with the sigil of the International Confederation of Wizards. The wax shimmered crimson beneath the torchlight.
"The Supreme Mugwump himself," Karkaroff said, almost savoring the words, "has issued a notice of dismissal. For you, Mr. Gustafson."
The parchment was heavy, the kind reserved for official decrees.
To Alexander Gustafson,
Durmstrang Institute, Norway.
I tore the seal open, the crack of the seal loud in the stillness of Karkaroff's office.
Mr. Gustafson,
By order of the Supreme Mugwump and the International Confederation of Wizards, you are hereby relieved of your duties under the Monster Hunting Division, effective immediately. This notice serves as formal termination of your active role within the organization pending the Council's upcoming vote regarding the continuation of all monster-hunting programs.
