Archie was pretty sure Silas was older than him, but some older students - especially those of other houses - weren't all that welcoming when it came to talking to firsties, so now he wasn't so sure.

The kid was right, of course. There WAS a lot to explore. Sooo much to see and do. Pity they had to attend classes and stuff. Unfair, really.
