"Her family is one of the more fanatical ones; the girls were given to Voldemort early. They were earmarked as Bellatrix's prodigies. Astoria has risen to the occasion, but Daphne has been a disappointment to her family. It's her proudest achievement, she says. Voldemort calls on her for ridiculous things like planning events. The New Year's bash that you crashed was Daphne's do. She gets away with doing less dark shit because he thinks females are generally useless anyway." Blaise glanced at Draco. "Voldemort hopes that Astoria will proselytise Draco away from politics and into a more Lucius-esque Death Eater role."
