Magnus nodded only to pause as the sound of beating wings and the sound of owl screeching above to catch his ear as he looked up as owls started to fly in through the windows.
"Looks like you were right." He commented as he caught sight of Erebus in his owl form flying in with some things in his talons.
Erebus swooped down and dropped the bundled mail he held that Magnus caught in mid-air with relative ease before holding out his arm as Erebus landed on it on his return pass giving a beat of his wings as he landed.
"You have an owl?" Daphne asked as she saw Erebus after retrieving her own copy of the prophet from one of the school owls.
"Oh wow, he's beautiful." Tracey said as she saw Erebus on Magnus's arm.
Magnus smirked and nodded, "Yeah, his name is Erebus." He said before offering up some bacon, "Care for some breakfast?" He asked
Erebus pinched one of the strips of bacon, 'I've already eaten, but I wouldn't pass up some bacon,' he mentally replied before taking flight once more and flying out of the hall.
Magnus just smirked and began to unroll his newspaper, he took note of a letter addressed to him from Ted.
But knew it was just the confirmation about having delivered the statement as ordered, Ted had told him he had to send such things out as it was the proper procedure.
He didn't have to look long before he found what he was looking for, Andy had been right he made the front page.
Lost son of the house of Black: Takes up heirship of the House of Black
Yesterday evening shocking news was brought to our attention, thanks to the aid of the Lord Lucius Malfoy, Lord of the magical house of Malfoy.
That the long-vacant position of Heir of the most ancient and most noble house of Black has been taken up once again by, at the time, persons unknown.
Lord Malfoy had this to say, "It was brought to my attention by my son that one of his fellow year-mates has the gall to lay claim to the position that rightfully belongs to him and house Malfoy."
"The title of heir Black belongs to my son, being of Black blood through his mother's side, he is the rightful heir to house Black, that has been stolen by this imposter."
"That he would sink so low as to confound the heir ring into accepting him and letting him wear it to fake his claim is only further proof of the depths that this imposter has delved so that he may steal what rightfully belongs to the magical house of Malfoy."
Such startling claims were believe to be true as records show that the current Malfoy heir, Draco Malfoy, is the son of lord Lucius Malfoy and lady Narcissa Malfoy nee Black, confirming Lord Malfoy's statement of his son being of the blood.
And as no other male heirs at the time were known, it is also true that Draco Malfoy looked to be inline for the heirship of the house of Black as well as his father's.
However no less than ten minutes after Lord Malfoy had left the building after giving his statement.
Law Wizard Edward Tonks arrived with a written statement and evidence proving the new heir's claim on the position to be genuine.
The new heir now identified as Magnus Roark Black, is the illegitimate child of the previous heir Regulus Arcturus Black, making him of Black blood also and through a direct male descendant.
And Alisha Parker, the last descendant of a third generation magical house that perished in the last war with her death.
As I am sure all our readers know, Illegitimate children of houses cannot inherit heir or lordships unless they are welcomed into the house and made Heir apparent by the lord of the house.
So the question I'm sure you're all asking is how did the new heir Black claim such when the previous lord Black, as we all know, died in the last year of the last war.
Well it has only just come to our attention that Lord Orion Black had, before he died, paintings commissioned of himself, to preserve him so that he might aid his son, heir Black's father.
But only weeks after Lord Blacks own passing his son soon followed suit and the paintings have remained in Black manor and the Black vault since his death.
And in place of the lord himself have recognised heir Black worth of the house and welcomed him naming him Heir apparent of the most ancient and most noble house of Black.
A position that the young heir has not let idle, as it has been revealed that the young heir's first decision as heir apparent to the house was to lift the banishment of his cousin.
Once removed, Andromeda Tonks nee Black, who has also been made heir Black's guardian, this decision also welcomes Andromeda's daughter into the house as well, a decision that both witches are thankful for.
A written statement from heir Black explaining his decision for doing so was delivered to this reported and stated plainly.
"The decision to banish both Andromeda and Nymphadora from the family was a decision that was made based on moods going around at the time."
"But now times have changed, and more than ever house Black needs to come together if there is any hope of it surviving and returning to its strength once more."
"Growing up an orphan I never knew my family, and now that I have finally found mine I'm not going to let poor decisions made in the heat of the moment keep what little family I have away."
"I understand that my house had a dark past but we can only move forward and leave such behind us. I will bring the most ancient and most noble house of Black back and restore it to its proper place and nothing will stand in my way."
