Dementors have been largely unknown in Great Britain and Ireland since 1996 when they were banished from Azkaban. It is believed that without the constant source of misery to feed on, their numbers dwindled. This is the second recorded Dementor attack in more than 10 years.Niobe Thursby

At 9:34am Persepolis Zephyr and Edwin Glass meet regarding the attack on Hogwarts. The dementors are as far as Inverness, and Glass reports Aviemore is overrunning with them. In the Cairngorns locals have noticed they're drawn to the stone circle.

The squib network has been examining local news reports, and accessing Muggle health statistics to try and note if there have been clusters, increases in reports of depression, loss of life, the sort that dementors can induce on a Muggle population when close by. No notable trend differing from the usual Muggle poverty and strife had so far been identified.

Glass explains another theory is that the colder weather over winter provided perfect conditions for their multiplication, in that they do not breed but grow in number like mould. Without enough food, without a continuation of the poor weather, their numbers will decline. Another possibility is that the dementors are not acting of their own free will.

In the wake of Sunday's events where Lawrence got away again, the couple aren't speaking. Relenting to break the silence, Ignan brings fish and chips home and they talk.

And Swells the Thund’ring Horrors of the Deep

“You need to promise me three things.” Ignan spoke again, looking up, less forceful in his stare this time, but still with enough gravitas to indicate how he really meant this, “Firstly, you keep that healer’s badge with you at all times, because half an hour’s delay is better than no help at all, and secondly, that you do not let anyone over the house boundary without confirming they are who they say they are- and then never ever Lawrence Musgrave.”

He paused, and perhaps that felt like three things already, but his gaze dropped a moment to Miranda’s hands and her parcel of fish and chips.

“I don’t know, is there?” He asked, slowly looking back up. It was a genuine question, returned more as if to ask Pratt if he would even entertain that his new prisoner were capable of such a thing. “I wouldn’t have come to you if I didn’t want to try.”

Miranda Storm is making progress with St Mungo's on treating dementor victims. She asks Solomon Carstairs and Edwin Glass for Lawrence Musgrave as a research subject.
Lend a Hand or Two

I kindly request a meeting with you both and whomever involved in the case of Mr Lawrence Musgrave to discuss the possibility of him being passed into the care and charge of St Mungo’s. It is my strong belief that my team and I can find a way to heal him of his symptoms and ties to the dementors, and in turn, heal and save countless affected individuals.Miranda Storm

Miranda Storm's research proposal is agreed, with some unexpected caveats.
In Good Hands

"Should this research of yours come to involve Musgrave, there will be conditions. Non-negotiable conditions," he took the first step towards their common goal and paused for a sip of tea. "And it would, of course, be done in collaboration with the Ministry."Solomon Carstairs

Harper Graves breaks a few rules to help Lawrence Musgrave save some very important dementor memories.
In Safe Hands

“Minister Glass has ordered the obliviation,” he told Harper the previous day, “There are memories we must copy and you must keep safe. They can be used at the right time. He has let me keep them longer than I expected, because by coming here, I protected myself.” She knew that for everything he had told her and Pratt, and the line of other aurors who had talked to him, he had still held back. “Insurance,” he had told her with sober sincerity, “If anything happens to me, to you...”Lawrence Musgrave

[Edit]
All memory of Edwin Glass asking Lawrence Musgrave about dementors is obliviated from Musgrave's memories by force.
Now Quivers Lowly

“You know what he wants you to obliviate, do you? Has he told you?” Lawrence asked, wanting to give her a good shake, “He wants you to remove memories about what he asked me to do to the dementors.”Lawrence Musgrave

The Minister releases the research subject to St Mungo's following obliviation.

“But isn’t taking that risk, if I can help, better than being a sitting duck in Azkaban?” He asked, “these dementors won’t leave me alone.”Lawrence Musgrave
