Description
The Daily Prophet Issue No. 101,770 3 July 2021 Lestrange: Model or Menace? After recent events at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, it should not surprise readers to find Miss Astra Lestrange making the news once more. Where newsworthy trouble at Hogwarts brews, the little "heroine" never seems to be far. This alone has caused many at this paper to scratch their heads, but now there's call for more than that. As hype over the attack had died down, Lestrange has come up with more and more outlandish tales of what she claims happened to her that night, including madmen that no one has heard of and a much more subversive agenda behind the known terrorists', the Predatels, cause than evidence points to (an agenda that features her as a prominent part, it should be noted). We at the Prophet have found this a disturbing development, leaving many to wonder if there's more to Astra Lestrange than her do-gooder facade... ~~~~ Made out to be a liar and danger by the media, Astra Lestrange's credibility has dropped to exactly zero in the eyes of the public. She's left helpless, fighting a seemingly impossible battle against the Ministry of Magic. Harry Potter is on her side, of course, but that has left him on shaky ground with the Ministry. He's had to resort to outside means to stop Caymus Stillens, but even that seems to be a losing battle. Even without her fall from grace, Astra would have had a tough year in store. On top of her OWLs, a new rival in Eris Prince, and a controversial new member on the Gryffindor Quidditch team, Astra escaped from Stillens last year. And no one escapes from Caymus Stillens with their life. At least, not for long. As the year progresses and her fight with the Ministry is overshadowed by a fight for her life, Astra begins to suspect that all is not well inside Hogwarts. Could it be that she's been betrayed again? Started: 2/25/17 Ended: 4/21/18
