Hmm. She worked a lot. Magical creatures? Ah well then, that probably ruled out the possibility that she'd seen the woman about the Ministry. The woman probably worked at some reservation in Romania. A rather bias assumption of people who worked with magical creatures, but it was true .... sixty percent of the time. "So you're used to the outdoors then, I guess, huh? Working around creatures and all." Alex mused, as the question turned to what she did. "Me? I'm an evolutionist. I ... research stuff. I'm rather fascinated by the universe." And astronomy.... and runes ... and the unknown. "Alexandria Hadley," she said, jutting out her hand. "Current Ministry Employee, former astrophysics lab scientist, and former Ravenclaw, class of 2063." Anything else the woman needed? DNA sample? Hair follicle? Hopefully not. "Not as much as I used to be," Ella responded with a sigh. "But I'm starting again now." She loved being out in the world and trekking in the dirt and being with creatures. It was her passion, but it had been hard ever since her husband died since he was the one she always traveled with and went on adventures with. Then she got a teaching job, which made traveling even more difficult. But being a department head was less restricting now. She had time to travel, which was good.
Ella adjusted her backpack and listened to the woman describe her interests. And... wow. "Impressive. What... do you research then?" The universe... in general? Because that seemed like a rather vast area of study. Ella took the woman's hand and shook it. So, she worked at the Ministry as well? That must have been why she looked familiar. And a Ravenclaw. Well, she definitely seemed like one. "Ella Wellington. Magical Creatures department head at the Ministry." She smiled kindly again. "And former professor, dragon trainer, Gryffindor. Class of 2061." Merlin, she was getting old...
With one last look around the small town, Ella glanced up the way at the trail where the yaks were pulling all the travelers things up to the base camp. "I'm assuming you're going up to the camp...?" Because Ella was eager to go up and see what the tents were like and see who else was brave enough to come on such an exciting adventure. |
