She knew that it wasn't wise to be too interested in what was happening at the Leaky Cauldron that night. Alecto hadn't minced words when she told her that she needed to stay as far away from the gathering as possible. There were too many unpredictable and caustic variables to contend with. If the Dark Lord suspected that she was nearby and she was somehow captured, he might believe that she was coming back to repent for her disobedience. Depending on his mood, she could either be welcomed warmly back into the fold or she would be made an example of. Neither option sounded attractive.
