Greetings to my fellow readers,
I owe you all my heartfelt apologies for the unanticipated hiatus of the past two months. Dreadful family matters had consumed my time, prompting this regrettable absence from our literary rendezvous.
In a twist of fate, our familial tapestry is to be adorned with a new thread, not from the loins of my aunts or uncles, nor even, Gods forbid, my own parents.
My cousin has impregnated his girlfriend. Astonishing news, considering I hadn't even realized Archie was courting. The ensuing family gatherings have been quite remarkable.
Pray, allow me to regale you with the happenings of our familial gatherings, reminiscent of scenes from a bygone era. The revelation has sparked a flurry of unprecedented family gatherings, prompting even Aunt Olivia's return from her sojourn in India and Uncle Oliver's hasty departure from France with Aunt Florence in tow. With their return our home had become a stage for the theatrics of kinship. Amidst the clamor, plans have been set in motion for their wedding next month.
Nevertheless, fear not, dear readers, for I have resolved to resume our literary rendezvous forthwith. Today, I shall unveil one chapter, and another shall follow on the morrow. Time permitting, I may even grace you with yet another chapter ere the nuptials.
Once again, I extend my deepest apologies for the delay and express my heartfelt gratitude for your patience and understanding.
Yours faithfully,
Hadrius T. Peverell
Heir Peverell
