Stacy back again:
So for the purpose of my fic, I feel a bit conflicted about this because it would require a
large alteration to the storyline. A future Death Eater, while at Hogwarts, would probably
hide the fact that she has a squib in her ancestry if wanting to impress somebody like
Draco Malfoy. Furthermore, she would hide the fact that somebody in her family practices
"complimentary medicine" (wizard healing with a bit of muggle medicine, like the healer
who put stitches in Arthur Weasley). To a Death Eater, this type of healer would be a
blood traitor, right?
