Owen!

Great work! I had to laugh when I read the description of the hotel. The first thing I said to myself was, "Wow, a beautiful place to visit for its historical appearance and story, but I'd never eat there!" Then, I wondered why on earth Ron suggested it; truly above his station, I think. Then, the answer... Hermione. Ron would do almost anything to please her. When he turned around and left, I thought, now, that's the Ronald Weasley I remember! What I'm wondering is why did Harry stay? I mean, if it was me, I'd have been right behind Ginny.

Which leads me to my next question. What on earth was Ron doing, alone, without his faithful side-kick, Harry Potter, wandering in the Black mountains? I mean, when has he ever had the ambition or gumption to explore on his own? This is where he chose to vacation? I really enjoyed the description of the castle and surrounding area, it created the perfect atmosphere for the story. I also liked the fact that Ron had to once again draw upon Hermione's vast knowledge even though she wasn't there.

Next question? Will we ever find out who the hurt wizard was? Do we/are we supposed to know yet? When has it ever been important to keep a person alive, even if he is privy to a bit of information... it reminded me of the deatheaters when they went on and on about keeping Harry Potter alive at all costs for Voldemort to kill. Another question? Why call for Griphook? He's a banker not a doctor or a healer... just wondered. I loved Kurzogs burst of excessive rage by the way... guess Griphook wasn't much help after all!

Okay, two questions come to mind... who was the figure Ron thought he saw outside of Senechal castle and who was the owner of the mocking laughter inside, or were they one in the same? Okay, so three questions there. Ooops!

Grrr... that Scorpius is just as weak and sneaky as his daddy. Always kicking a person when they weren't looking. I'm so glad Gryffindor won against Slytherin! I wish I could've seen their faces! I guess the firework must've been a surprise from George to Albus? Given on the condition that he only let it off if Gryffindor won?

One last question? When will everyone finally figure out that Cei is still alive? He is still alive after all, right?

Once again Owen, another exciting chapter. I look forward to your next post, hoping to find more questions and answers!
