    Ominis took a deep breath before approaching his parents, the weight of his decision hanging heavy in the air. His mother looked up from her reading, and his father observed him with narrowed eyes."Mother, Father," Ominis began cautiously, "I've been thinking, and I've come to realize that perhaps I've been too rash in my judgments. You were right about the importance of our heritage and maintaining our status in the wizarding world."His mother lowered her book, studying Ominis with a scrutinizing gaze, "And what brought about this sudden change of heart?"Ominis hesitated, "I've been foolish, chasing after ideals that don't align with our family's best interests. I want to make amends and support the legacy of our bloodline."His father, though silent, nodded in agreement, while Marvolo, who had been observing from the shadows, stepped forward with a sneer, "This is all too convenient. Why the sudden change, Ominis? What game are you playing?"Ominis answered, trying to hide his disdain, "No game, Marvolo. I've simply realized the error of my ways and want to contribute to the prosperity of our family."Marvolo scoffed, "I don't buy it. He's up to something, Mother, Father. You'd be wise not to trust him."Ominis' parents exchanged wary glances and pointed their wands towards Ominis, shouting in unison "Legilimens".Ominis braced himself as his parents delved into his mind. The silence was tense, and the only audible sound was the faint crackle of the magical connection. His parents, despite their skill, couldn't visually perceive his memories due to his blindness, but the echoes of his recent confrontation with Sebastian resonated vividly.His mother spoke first, her voice cold and analytical, "You did have a disagreement with your friend. It seems genuine."His father nodded, "And your intentions to support the family's legacy are clear. Marvolo, what do you make of this?"Marvolo, still skeptical, crossed his arms, "I don't trust it. He could be putting on a show for us."His father sighed, "Marvolo, we need to be sure. Ominis, if you're sincere, you will have no qualms with your brother performing Legilimency on your little friends. We need to ensure they aren't influencing your decisions."Ominis hesitated. "Sebastian is more important. I don't think that girl—"Marvolo interrupted sharply, "Are you scared, Ominis? Scared that they might expose your true intentions?"Reluctantly, Ominis agreed, "Fine. If you are inclined on wasting your time with a worthless little girl, do whatever you please. I shall be in my chamber, waiting to hear what you saw in her mind. I am sure the latest fashion and gossips from Feldcroft are... Extremely interesting," he tried to put on a nonchalant façade and he could feel Marvolo doubting himself.As Ominis entered his chamber, he silently prayed for a miracle, hoping that somehow, Anne would be shielded from Marvolo's intentions.___As the wheels of fate turned, the next day, back in London, a missive from Mr. Smith reached Matilda.
  --- Madam,

  I must say your daughter seems to be taking her sweet time in making her presence known. One would think she's auditioning for a role in a dramatic production. Be assured, my time is valuable, and I don't appreciate unnecessary delays.

  However, as much as I'd prefer not to waste another minute on this matter, I'll reluctantly accompany you to fetch her. I have no desire to play the rescuer, but it seems you're incapable of handling such affairs independently.

  I must insist that your daughter's reputation better match the idyllic image you've painted. If she doesn't possess the virtues you claim, I won't hesitate to wash my hands of the entire affair. A lady's virtue is, after all, of utmost importance. I trust that she remains untouched by any scandalous behavior. I hold traditional values in high regard, and I would be deeply disappointed if, upon our union, I were to discover any improprieties regarding her virtue. Such a revelation would undoubtedly lead to a swift dissolution of our union.

  I trust you'll ensure this reunion is not entirely devoid of reason.

  Yours reluctantly,
Mr. Smith ---
Tears welled up in Matilda's eyes as she read the callous words penned by Mr. Smith. Folding the letter with a heavy heart, she retreated to the sanctuary of her private chamber. In a quiet corner, concealed within a hidden compartment of her jewelry box, lay a treasure – a small moving painting of two young girls, their faces radiant with joy and a striking resemblance. Gazing at the animated image, Matilda whispered, "Oh, Noctua, what counsel would you have offered in such a dire predicament?" The fragile threads of her emotions intertwined with the haunting echoes of a past filled with secrets and silent sorrows.Felix gently knocked on the door before entering Matilda's room, concern etched across his face. "Matilda, my dear, what ails you?" he inquired, his gaze lingering on the remnants of her tears.Matilda hastily wiped away the evidence and hid the moving painting within the secret compartment. "Oh, it's nothing, Felix," she replied, forcing a smile. "Just the weariness from orchestrating Elizabeth's coming out ceremony."Concern deepened in Felix's eyes. "Is there something troubling you, my love?"Matilda took a deep breath, summoning a façade of enthusiasm. "No, not at all. I've been immersed in the preparations, you see." She began to detail her meticulous plans, describing the venue, the guest list, and the elaborate decorations. The excitement in her voice masked the turmoil within, and her husband listened attentively, sensing his wife's inner battle.After Matilda finished, Felix sat down, his brows furrowed with concern. "Matilda, I cannot shake the feeling that this Mr. Smith might not be the best match for our Elizabeth."Matilda sighed, her shoulders slumping. "I've been wrestling with the same doubts, Felix. But our reputation... it's a delicate matter."Felix took her hand gently. "My love, I understand the importance of our family's standing, but Elizabeth's happiness should be the priority. Do you think your past experiences with your family might be clouding your judgment?"Matilda hesitated, then nodded reluctantly. "It's possible, Felix. But I can't ignore the consequences of a tarnished reputation. Look at the letter Mr. Smith sent me." She handed him the envelope, her eyes filled with a mix of shame and concern.As Felix read the contents, his expression turned from curiosity to disbelief, then to anger. "Matilda, this man's tone is unacceptable. Elizabeth deserves better."Matilda bit her lip, torn between her desire for Elizabeth's happiness and the fear of societal judgment. "I know, Felix, but I'm hesitant to dismiss him outright. Maybe he's just anxious about the match. We should give him the benefit of the doubt."Felix sighed, knowing the delicate balance they were navigating. "Matilda, consider other suitors. Elizabeth's future is at stake, and we owe her the chance for a genuine connection."Matilda pondered his words, the weight of her decision pressing upon her. "I'll think about it, Felix. But we must tread carefully."
