The safe glowed green and budged. Michael heard tumblers start to turn and then quit. "Good start, but thats not all of it," he said. He thought slowly. Then he spoke clearly, "April 4th." The tumblers started turning again and then slowly the stone began to shift away. "It was a two part password. The map code and Khaat's birthdate. It took both to make it work." There was a vault the size of a Gringotts vault. It was loaded, almost as full as it could get, with shimmering gold galleons. It was stunning, to say the least. A pure fortune. Michael wasn't impressed by it. He'd seen hoards of treasure before. What his eyes focused on was a tatty old book with a letter sticking out of the top. The book was stuck in a corner, wedged behind stacks of coins, almost unseen except by Michae's very expert eyes. He left the coins as they were and picked up the book instead. He opened the book. It was a journal--in Remus's hand.
"He wrote this in his last days, when we were doing the underground radio before the second wizarding war. I had forgotten all about this thing. He wrote in it by the hour," Michael said softly. "We were holed up in that cellar for days at a time. It was all he did when he wasn't on the air." He fingered through the pages. "Oh, God. I never knew. Every entry in here is a letter to Khaat. He left this to her. This was before he fell in love with Tonks or had Teddy. And look. Here's the code to those bloody runes." He drew out the letter. It was addressed to Khaat. He opened it and read it silently. Then he handed it to Brian. "As her husband, you're an equal heir to all those galleons. He left every single galleon he had that wasn't in Gringotts to her."
"Wait..Didn't he leave his money to Tonks and Teddy?" Brian frowned, remembering.
"Yes. What he had in Gringotts. Yes. By the time Tonks came into the picture, he either forgot about this hoard or he loved Khaat far too much to change it."
"Khaat thought he died relatively penniless."
"Clearly not," Michael said. "And dont' think the sum he left Teddy was small either by any means. My guess is that Teddy's aunt used a great portion of the Gringotts funding to raise the boy. This clearly belongs to you and Khaat. That is a legal inheritance document, willing it all to her. And now, by our laws, its yours as well." Brian shook his head, staring at the piles and piles of golden coins, overwhelmed by it all.
