Unleashing the Curse: A Look into Disobliging through Witchcraft

Disobliging by witchcraft involves the use of supernatural or magical powers to intentionally cause harm or trouble to someone. This malevolent act is carried out through the practice of witchcraft, wherein individuals channel dark forces or invoke spells to manipulate and inflict pain on their chosen target. The main idea here is the intention to harm or trouble someone through the use of supernatural powers. This act is fueled by negative emotions such as jealousy, revenge, or a desire for power and control. The individual practicing witchcraft may feel justified in their actions due to some perceived wrong or injustice committed against them. By harnessing the mystical and often mysterious powers associated with witchcraft, these individuals believe they can bring misfortune, illness, or even death upon their intended target.

There is a Unesco convention on the protection of cultural property in the event of armed conflict , known as the Hague Convention, which the UK signed on 30 December 1954, but has never incorporated into UK law.

Disobliging by witchcraft

Once in wizarding history, and once only, was the impact of a witch hunt truly felt.

The massacre was undertaken swiftly and with precision. Its architect was the widow of an obscenely wealthy Muggle land owner whose death had never satisfactorily been proven to be the result of foul play. She was Caroline LaPerle of Paris, and she made an art form of despising anything that did not come gilded and wrapped in Givenchy. The bedraggled, cauldron-toting tramps who had the nerve to walk the streets of her city proved too much a test of her patience. In the early Spring of 1987, under cover of night, the homes of respectable magical citizens were invaded and their supersensory charms inexplicably disabled. Always at a different time. Always in a different part of town.

With no dearth of social-climbing acquaintances only too happy to provide her with alibis when her children asked where she kept disappearing to at night, Caroline was able to continue her hunt for some time. Curiously, though the Obliviation Squad always arrived in the nick of time to prevent the Muggle press from getting a hold of the story, the French Ministry was never able to trace the crimes. Each morning a wizard or witch was discovered on their front lawn, tied to a pyre and gruesomely razed to ash and bone with their wand snapped in two at their feet. A handwritten note always accompanied the corpse, serving up such unimaginative slurs as Freak, Monster, and The Lord Hates Magic. At last, just when the effort to cover up the attacks was beginning to task the Ministry’s inventiveness, an anonymous tip led French Aurors right to Caroline LaPerle’s front door.

Without the aid of a wand, the question of how Caroline had committed her crimes quite stymied Ministry interrogators. A thorough examination of her memories revealed only that she had led a team of Muggle zealots in breaking into wizarding abodes for over a month, always finding the houses unprotected. She was sentenced to summary Obliviation and frame-up for incarceration in a Muggle institution. She accepted her fate with a disobliging expression of serenity.

Eight days later, Caroline LaPerle broke out of her cell in a high-security Muggle Prison and vanished. The two Aurors assigned to keep watch over her never knew what happened, and woke up in Saint Mungo’s several days later with terrible headaches.

Caroline followed her accomplice to a luxurious rural estate in the South of France, where he offered her a sack full of gold and a cursory expression of gratitude.

“I’m afraid I’ve no idea who you are,” she informed the well-groomed man with pale blond hair and a pointed face.

“That is the result of your Obliviation,” said Lucius Malfoy. “Still, I may need to make use of you again in the future. You will remain here, under guard.”

The curtains were gold brocade. It did not occur to Caroline to protest. Not until Malfoy departed and his guards closed in.

“Imagine!” said Malfoy the following morning, brandishing a copy of the Prophet under the Minister’s nose. The headline read PARIS MUGGLES CLAIM TWENTY-SEVEN WIZARDING LIVES IN BRUTAL WITCH HUNT, INSIDE SOURCES REPORT.

“Shocking,” the Minister agreed.

Malfoy sneered. “And to think there are those in the Wizengamot who side with Arthur Weasley, and claim that we ought to forge ties with the Muggles. Who would vote to coexist with them more fully. Simply absurd.” The Minister nodded gravely. “This Witch Hunt business proves it. We could never coexist with them.”
