The wizarding world recovered quickly without Draco. No information or clues or bodies were ever found that could give a satisfactory answer as to what happened to all the missing, and as the years dragged on the case was (reluctantly) put aside to focus on other matters. Many of the missing posters were covered over with new adverts or taken down entirely. There were books and articles written on the entire ordeal, delving into Draco Malfoy’s incredible rise to power and sudden disappearance and possible death. Hermione flipped through some of them and couldn’t help but laugh scornfully at the amount of detail they got wrong or left out entirely. There were still many around who looked favorably on him, still unaware of his true nature.
