Harbingers of Things Long Past (6 Jan 2010)

Waitress Bethan Ellis is hoping for a break in her usual routine when Cursebreaker Raizel Cohen stops into the Three Broomsticks for a quiet lunch -- but the day turns out to be anything but routine or quiet when a mysterious visitor delivers a strange music box to a customer at the bar. When the box is opened, a strange creature escapes and attacks the people present. An old man dies, Aurors arrive, and Raizel and Bethan are both left facing the start of a decades-old mystery.

But he hadn't just died, she realized as she set the bottle down and angled her head to peer at the old man's body over the counter of the bar. He had been killed. There had been that strange hooded figure, who had apparated away as soon as he'd spoken to the man; as soon as he'd realized that anyone else had been watching. And then the dybbuk had been released. A chill ran down Raizel's spine, and she shot a glance back toward the door of the tavern. But no one was there now; whoever had brought the dybbuk to the old wizard, it seemed that his flight had been genuine.
