The following is penned in a very neat scrawl, as if the person writing it does not often write such letters but that this one is of grave importance and he has taken great pains to ensure that it sounds polite, as would be expected of any good Beauxbatons lad.C. Gaubert

Dear Ms. Thursby,
I wish to thank you for your recent article that I read in the Daily Prophet reporting the three
Dragon Tamers who were recently killed in Cardiff. Presently, I am in the UK as part of Beauxbaton's delegation for the Tetrawizard Tournament. But one day I aspire to be a Dragon Tamer like the ones you took the time to write about. So as you can imagine then, any news about Dragons and Dragon Taming is of extreme interest to me.
My current status as a student limits my interaction with the magical beasts and because of this I hope you will continue to report on such events in the future. Or any involving fantastical creatures like them.
And even if you don't, I wanted to let you know that you have an avid fan in me.
Regards,
Corentin Gaubert
