Dedalus!
There was a distinctive crackle of the lights going out. Their complex was mostly muggle, save for a family on the first floor, so the Diggles (hee, she loved saying that) had experienced their share of blackouts. Of course, they had the ability to use their wands and other magical sources of light to get them through the times of darkness, so it had never been an issue.
Eliza let out a breath as she reached for her wand, having been writing out short notes for their family and friends about their new location. The move was something they all desperately needed, and with Dedalus' concerns about the Order (Eliza had kept herself in the not-so-literaly dark about their activities, as it helped her sleep at night not to know) they were going to be very careful about who they let know about their new location.
She frowned when her usual spell to light up the candles around the kitchen fizzed and did not produce any light. That was---strange, very strange. She tried again, and it almost felt like something was invisibly blocking her. Her lumos worked, and Eliza stood, calling out from the kitchen, "Dedalus?"
