"That's quite the book you've got there," said Alice, eyeing it with curiosity. She had spent most of her summer reading some of the new muggle mysteries that had come out in her father's library as well as some books on Herbology she had gotten in Diagon Alley. Forgive me for not knowing this, but what exactly is kendo?" Alice asked, having never heard of it before.

Alice nodded in agreement when Kurumi said she missed it. "I love being at home with my dad but I do miss Hogwarts when I am gone as well. My summer was very low key, although I did spend most of my time pretending that I knew a lot about european art and architecture. I live in a very tight knit muggle community, so naturally they are rather curious about my schooling abroad."
