That explained it...

"I guess the castle has been a little busy this term. Not much time to settle in with all this cleaning some of us have to be doing," Paying just to have to clean your own Common Room. Madness really. "Doesn't matter though. Everyone's forced into the same place for classes, you can make more friends there--so long as you don't talk too much and have the Professor get upset." Yeah...experience told her that that wasn't such a grand idea.

Lex thought over his question, the answer needed to be a complete one but at the same time she didn't want him getting any more discouraged.

"Well, it's just, everything was super clean and pretty last year. The food was good and I never had to spread my own bed. This year's real different. I wish you had come here a year sooner so you could see. Basically now that the school's broke, everything is automatically worse." Surely he'd tasted the food!!!

Forrest nodded, though he didn't look much happier. He had never been the most social type, but his last three days had really been boring with Kahlan in Slytherin. "I mean... I've met quite a lot of older students, and I see a few first years around too but--" I don't have the courage to talk to them. He sighed, avoiding admitting his incapacity. "I'll just wait for the classes yet." And this time, he didn't even giggle at the little tip there because he was preoccupied with fitting in and whatnot. This proved to be much harder than fitting in Saudi Arabia.

"I don't mind paying," he went on, not realising that this may sound rude and snobbish. That wasn't his intention at all, though. He was just used to attending private schools. "But they surely could have seen it was going to be like this, no? I mean--" he looked around desperately, "--Kahlan told me house elves did whatever their wizards ordered them to do. Why didn't Headmistress tell them to stay?" Assuming Headmistress didn't, and also assuming Alexa knew everything about it, because she was his heroine.
