Order only: Bronwyn Gwyneth
Sep. 24th, 2012 08:08 amI'm in Cardiff, Wales, to bring Bronwyn Griffiths to Moddey Dhoo. And a merry chase I've had of it the past three days, too.
Arthur, the state of records here is appalling. Bronwyn's parents are nowhere to be found, but after three days of hard searching, I found Bronwyn herself. I admit I made a mistake: I asked to see Bronwyn's mother, and was introduced to Morgan Griffiths, so I assumed she was the mother. I launched into my explanation about the Sanctuary and only found out belatedly that she's Bronwyn's fifteen-year old sister.
It turns out that Bronwyn's been left in her care, and Morgan has no idea where her parents are. The girl insists that we take her sister. And it's not as if she's urging this because she's eager to relinquish the responsibility. On the contrary, it's clear that she's bonded to the baby well, and that giving her up will be a wrench. But she has quite an adult head on her shoulders, I'd judge, and she understands the risks that Bronwyn faces if her magic manifests before we come back. I don't like to take her without the parents' permission.
I'm going to devote today to see if I can determine from local records where they've been assigned. But if we can't (and I doubt we will; as I said, the local records seem to be utterly haphazard): what do we do?
These decisions just don't get any easier.
