After turning a paperweight into a portkey, the five of them portkeyed to a location Harry had seen flagged on the map in Southern England. They appeared at Westhaven, a Fiernan town that boasted the largest Nantucketer military base in the world. The base was named Pentagon Base. As soon as they appeared, McLeod threw up! For him, apparition had not been a pleasant experience.
Although there were a few of the old-style Fiernan huts, most of the buildings in Westhaven were 19th century style wood frame buildings. It appeared that the Fiernan of Westhaven had greatly assimilated the culture of Nantucket.

"This is one of the places you had flagged on the map in you office" said Harry. "Take a look around. Once you have assured yourself that we are, in fact, here, I'll take you back to your office."

When it came time for them to leave, Officer McLeod insisted on staying. He knew that he'd rather take the time to catch a ship back than to experience the portkey again.
They portkeyed between Mr. Jay's office and places on the map several times. This gave Harry and Luella a chance to visit Irondale, a Nantucket-run Fiernan Steel mill town in northern the future site of Sophroshire. On Mauritius, an island in the Indian Ocean that had been colonized in the Indian Ocean, Harry got to pet a live Dodo. And the Nantucket base outside of Babylon was swelteringly hot.

~Don't give me that "It's a dry heat" crap~ hissed Luella

Finally, that had overcome all of Mr. Jay's objections and convinced him that Harry and Luella were what they said they were.

"Well now, Mr. and Mrs. Potter" began Mr. Jay

"Tal-y-Rhys" corrected Luella.

"What?"

"Tal-y-Rhys. My full title in Lady Luella Tal-y-Rhys. It's a matrilineal title and since I'm the only Tal-y-Rhys Witch in this time period, I use that name instead of my husband's."

"Yes, the Fiernan are matrilineal too" Said Mr. Jay. "So, we're used to that sort of thing here. As I was saying, your talents could prove quite useful to us. Would you be interested in a few courier missions for our government? They would have to be top secret, of course. You know, scratch my back and I'll scratch yours?"




And so the government of Nantucket secretly subsidized a mortgage that allowed to Harry and Luella to buy an early 20th century house that had electricity and running water retrofitted to it. Harry and Luella apparated around the world carrying messages back in forth that allowed the co-ordination of a summit of World Leaders to hammer out a peace treaty.




Author's Note: I was disappointed that the book: "On the Oceans of Eternity" didn't say much about the summit at the end of it. So next chapter, I will finally tackle that.
