Marx is the team leader, but the enforcer on-call to-day was named Fraser.
Marx's theory is that the creatures were grown too hungry. He's sending them to Crieff to fatten them up. With Fraser as a taster. Believe me, Raz, Minerva and I were all livid.
He'll switch out the rest of the team to other assignments and remind the replacements that the Dementors are to be monitored at all times. He's also moving them back from Hogsmeade when they return: It's unlikely Snape is still in the area, but if he is, he's likely in the surrounding countryside, which they are to scour for signs. Well past time, if you ask me.
I don't mind saying we're lucky the boy didn't die. Even with twenty wands - mine and Narcissa's included - trying to catch him and get him safely to ground, the strong winds made for a bad landing.
Razzer is beside himself. And no wonder. At least there's no question of Harry's returning to Quidditch. His broom was quite destroyed by the Whomping Willow. Something of a blessing in disguise, I think. I've already taken care of making sure Cumulus does not immediately volunteer to replace it.
Remains to be seen whether Draco will be allowed to continue if Harry does not.
