"Woah, you have a house elf?" Ella asked, excitedly. She was fascinated with house elves and they way they were so loyal to their employers until they were set free. She had heard that some were treated very poorly but it was nice of Nate and his family to give the house elf a cottage to stay in.
"It's nice that you gave him his own place. I'm sure he appreciates it. Say, how exactly do you set him free?" She didn't know and was very curious.
