Hermione's thoughts didn't stray far from Rosalind Nott for an entire day after their visit. Despite knowing she was running out of time to complete her plans against those stupid enough to throw their support in with Rodolphus, each time she tried to think of her next move, she thought about the young witch all alone in the dreary manor. The sense of responsibility she felt for the young widow made little sense until she remembered how she was the one to cast the spell to end her husband's life. She would've had some protection if Theodore lived long enough to consummate their marriage. Also seeing the poor witch in danger of going down the same dangerous path she did made her stomach twist and turn. What right did she have to damn an innocent to such a miserable existence?
