Order Only: Sherwood Band has a problem
Poppy, Frank and Alice:
We stopped by for our usual beginning of the month stop to see our friends with the Sherwood Band. They celebrated Guy Fawkes in their own way, by quietly liberating a half a dozen people from Derby. It seems they've taken a tip from us, and now they have a confederate inside the camp who's providing bogus death certificates, so there shouldn't be a hue and cry. Davidson's obviously thought quite carefully about this, and they've been building up a cache of supplies so they can support more people. Those wands have helped a lot. However, there is a problem they didn't anticipate.
One of the women they got out fell badly ill this morning. Poppy, we're afraid it might be the sickness that's been reported in the Muggle camps, but she's a muggleborn. Once I told them about what Poppy's heard, that it might be spread by fleas, we checked everyone over (us and the Sherwood people as well as the escapees), using Molly's charm. But we found no sign of either fleas or flea bites.
Poppy, these people don't complain, but they're obviously worried about how the ruddy hell they're going to be able to nurse her while they're living rough and sometimes have to move fast to break camp to avoid Bloodhounds or MLE. She has a high fever. Davidson asks if there is anything we can do to help her. I thought--well, I thought about the isolation room you set up for Frank at Moddey Dhoo. Is there any possibility we can bring her there?
Ever since she's fallen ill, she's been insisting that no one should get close to her. Jacinda Chadha, her name is--skinny as a wand, in her late twenties, I'd guess, and obviously one tough lady. They're trying to tend her as best they can by using their wands to float supplies within her reach, but they'll be in a right fix if they have to break camp and move out fast.
Is there anything we can do for them?
Davidson's never really asked anything from us before. He's always rather prided himself on being as self-sufficient as possible, although those wands we gave them have thawed things out marvelously. I really don't want to let him down now that he's genuinely asking for our help.

I offered your suggestion of St Mungo's, with an obliviate, and she told me to kill her rather than do that. I'm sorry, Poppy, I know you won't like it. But I'm going to take her to Moddey Dhoo. Frank and Alice and Arabella have given their permission, with Stephen's approval, and so that's what we're going to do. I'll isolate myself from the rest of the Players when I get back, making a separate camp, and we'll wait out the ten days until I'm clear. Luckily, we've had so many performances cancelled that no one's expecting us anywhere for awhile.
