I don't know, Cissy, and frankly - I don't really care right now, either.
Black's supporters planted some kind of muggle explosive en route to Calais. The escort from Brest was thinner than I would have liked, but it was all they would provide for a man who, to them, seemed harmless enough, seeing as he had neither wand or weapon on him. He broke free in the smoke and chaos, but not before I got him.
The French lost some men and women in the blast, and Zuckerman was badly injured. At least one of Black's, a woman, is dead... anyway, he can't have got far. We'll find him if I have to burn down the whole country-side.
Well, try not to burn down the vineyards, if you please. But at least bring his corpse back, even if you must let your curse to do its work and wait for him to choke on his own blood.
That much, at least, Lucius made sure I heard! I'm sure we would have all preferred to pull down his whole organisation while Our Lord made him cry for mercy, made him watch as his supporters were executed one by one in front of him - but still, it's a relief to know that either way, we have heard the black sheep's last bleat.
Oh, he actually chokes on more than just blood. Far more. As Barty knows, I've spent a long time perfecting this particular curse, and not only is it foolproof - it's agonising. Whatever is left of him won't be altogether pretty.

ORDER ONLY

And if it comes to that, I swear I'm taking you down with me first.
You and that sister of yours.
